Simulating the interaction of galaxies and the intergalactic medium

The co-evolution of galaxies and the intergalactic medium as a function of environment is studied using hydrodynamic simulations of the ACDM cosmogony. It is demonstrated with non-radiative calculations that, in the absence of non-gravitational mechanisms, dark matter haloes accrete a near-universal...
