Galactic Galactic OutflowsOutflows• Cold mode accretion is dense & filamentary Need
bouncer feedback to prevent overcooling: Outflows• Test outflow scaling relations by comparing hydro
simulations to outflow-related observables, e.g.:– IGM enrichment [Oppenheimer & RD 06]– Early galaxies & overcooling [RD, Finlator, Oppenheimer 07]– Mass-metallicity relation [Finlator & RD 07]– DLA kinematics [S. Hong, Katz etal in prep]– ICM metals & energy [RD etal in prep]
• A single wind scaling relation matches all these!
Quantifying Quantifying OutflowsOutflows
• Outflows rare locally, but probably the norm at z>~2.
• Two basic parameters:
– Outflow velocity: vw
– Mass loading factor: • Martin 05, Rupke etal 05:
Starbursts show vwvcirc. • Murray etal 05: Such a
scaling arises in momentum-driven winds: vwvc, 1/vc
• Implement into Gadget-2, Monte Carlo ejection of particles, vc computed from Mgal using on-the-fly finder.

How unique is this outflow How unique is this outflow model?model?• Short answer: Not terribly.
• Key features that seem necessary to match data:– Winds eject mass & metals from ALL galaxies, not just
dwarfs.– Small galaxies expel a higher fraction of their accreted gas.– Outflow rate » star formation rate @ early epochs.
• M-D scalings work, but feel free to invent your own…

How do outflows set galaxy How do outflows set galaxy properties?properties?
• Key insight: Accreted gas is processed quickly Inflow ≈ Outflow + SFR.
SFR = Inflow/(1+). This inflow equilibrium relation broadly governs galaxy properties (e.g. SFH, Z, fgas).
• e.g. fgas is set by (M*). If this doesn’t vary with z, then fgas(M*) doesn’t vary with z [as observed].
• Energetics arguments for outflows are not relevant. Outflows don’t share energy, they blow holes and leave.
• Bottom line: is key! vwind irrelevant, beyond >vesc.

What does this mean for outflow What does this mean for outflow physics?physics?• Unclear; approx scalings could in principle be generated
from momentum or energy driven winds.• SN-driven sims usually fail to remove much gas mass
from the ISM (Mac Low & Ferrara; Teyssier’s talk).• In principle, lots of momentum available from light and
stellar winds to drive gas out, but coupling unclear.• Need ISM sims of momentum-driven winds!• Much to be done on feedback… What about accretion?

• Gas accretion star formation• M*-SFR constrains SFH form:
• Observations of SFGs (z~0-2):– M*SFR0.7-0.9 at all z.– Small scatter (<0.3 dex) around
“main sequence” of SFGs.– Evolution is M*-independent.

IMF wrong?IMF wrong?[insert Stacy McGaugh MOND dance][insert Stacy McGaugh MOND dance]
• Need less M* formed per unit high-mass SF
• Conservatively, SFR/M* should be reduced by ~x3 at z=2, and ~x2 at z=1: This would yield unevolving sf.
• Larson (98,05): IMF today has Mchar≈0.5 M. High-z ISM hotter Mchar higher.
• “Evolving Kroupa” IMF (0.1-100 M):
dN/dlogMM-0.3 for M<Mchar.
dN/dlogMM-1.3 for M>Mchar.
Mchar=0.5(1+z)2 M from PEGASE modeling
Evolving IMFEvolving IMF• No effect on high-
mass SF/feedback/ metals; only detectable in M* accumulation rate.
• SFR down by ~×(1+z)
• Fardal etal: Reconciling fossil light (K, EBL) and integrated cosmic SFH“Paunchy” IMF.
• Perez-Gonzalez etal (IRAC): M* to z~4. dM*/dt < SFR @z>2.
• Not crazy…
SummarySummary• It is possible to constrain basic outflow
parameters across cosmic time by comparing hydro sims to galaxy SFR and ZIGM data.
• Best matches are for scalings reminiscent of momentum-driven winds, but actual physics of wind propagation unknown.
• Mass loading factor is key: SFRZ(1+)-1.• Accretion appears to be reasonably well
understood, but at face value the evolution of SFR-M* doesn’t agree.
• An IMF that is more bottom-light at high-z is an explanation that seems equally as (un)likely as any of the alternatives, and may be favored from fossil light considerations.
Simulated SFH wrong?Simulated SFH wrong?• At z~2, observed sf~0.2.• Problem: Can’t reconcile sf~0.2 with
other data, let alone models.• Bursts? (tip of iceberg)
– M*-SFR tight; Lower SFRs would’ve been seen.
• Delayed SF? (strong early feedback)– sf~0.2 implies z~2 systems began SF at
z~2.3! Plus, low scatter for 1.4<z<2.5.
• Unseen passive galaxies? (downsizing)– Mass-selected samples do not see enough
passive galaxies; sBzK selects dominant population at z~2.
• All seem dubious (besides being inconsistent with models).
Measurements wrong? Measurements wrong? (Systematics)(Systematics)
• Need to lower SF / raise M* by ~x3-5.• Raising M* generically hard: Unless stars
put out a LOT less red light than locally. [note: Maraston vs. BC03 goes wrong way]
• Something else mimicking SF?– AGN: Possible, but would have to be strange
to exactly mimic tight M*SFR.– PAH emission: Rest-8m dominated by PAHs,
so perhaps PAH emission per unit SF much stronger at high z.
• Can’t be ruled out, but would require dramatic differences vs locally calibrated relations. Such differences not seen locally even in extreme systems.
