Insights on the Origin of Odd Radio Circles from Cosmological Simulations
We investigate shock structures driven by merger events in high-resolution simulations that result in a galaxy with a virial mass M ≈ 10 ^12 M _⊙ . We find that the sizes and morphologies of the internal shocks resemble remarkably well those of the newly detected class of odd radio circles (ORCs). T...
