Cold Stream Penetration of Virial Shocks: Fragmentation, Coagulation, and Disruption in the Hot Circumgalactic Medium
Cold streams penetrating virial shocks of massive halos along cosmic web filaments are expected to fuel galaxy growth at high redshift, yet the physical processes governing their penetration remain uncertain.
Cold streams penetrating virial shocks of massive halos along cosmic web filaments are expected to fuel galaxy growth at high redshift, yet the physical processes governing their penetration remain uncertain. We investigate cylindrical cold streams penetrating a hot…
