A subresolution multiphase interstellar medium model of star formation and supernova energy feedback

Abstract: We present a new multiphase subresolution model for star formation and feedback in smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) numerical simulations of galaxy formation. Our model, called MUPPI (MUlti-Phase Particle Integrator), describes each gas particle as a multiphase system, with cold and hot gas phases, coexisting in pressure equilibrium and a stellar component. Cooling of the hot tenuous gas phase feeds the cold gas phase. We compute the cold gas molecular fraction using the phenomenological relation of Blitz… Show more

“…In particular, it will be useful to attempt a further generalization of the SGS model to multiphase turbulence. A very simple ansatz has recently been presented by Murante et al (2010). A complete SGS model that treats a warm and a cold gas phase is presently under development (Braun & Schmidt, in prep.…”

“…Such processes have previously been missed in analytical models and cosmological simulations mainly because the multiphase nature of the ISM is not resolved and has to be implemented as a subresolution model. For example Springel & Hernquist (2003) include a sub-grid multiphase model for star formation while Murante et al (2010) include a non-equilibrium model that includes the three ISM phases for each SPH particle. Unfortunately such methods mean that the intricate structure one expects is washed out due to low resolution.…”

“…Here star formation depends on local pressure through the molecular fraction of gas (Eq. 5 in Murante et al 2010), and the gas pressure is expected to depend on halo mass. The star forming gas undergoes kinetic feedback and produces galactic outflows.…”

“…The original MUPPI sub-resolution algorithm is described in Murante et al (2010), and its latest features (chemical evolution, metal cooling, SN kinetic feedback) in Murante et al (2014 to represent a multiphase ISM composed of hot and cold phases, in pressure equilibrium. A fraction of the cold phase (the molecular gas fraction) provides the reservoir for SF.…”
