Seeking Self-regulating Simulations of Idealized Milky Way–like Galaxies

Precipitation is potentially a mechanism through which the circumgalactic medium (CGM) can regulate a galaxy’s star formation. Here, we present idealized simulations of isolated Milky Way–like galaxies intended to examine the ability of galaxies to self-regulate their star formation, in particular v...
