Peiris Dr James Bolton January 25, 2018 Declaration I, Teresita Suarez´ Noguez , declare that the thesis entitled Understanding the distribution of gas in the Universe and the work presented in the thesis are both my own, and have been generated by me as the result of my own original research. I confirm the thesis is based on work done by myself jointly with others, I have made clear exactly what was done by others and what I have contributed myself. This work has not been submitted for any other degree at UCL or any other University. London, January 25, 2018 Teresita Suarez´ Noguez Understanding the distribution of gas in the Universe Teresita Suarez´ Noguez Abstract The distribution of gas in the Universe can be observed in absorption in the spectra of quasars. However, interpreting the spectra requires comparison to physical models which map the distribution, temperatures and ionisation states of the gas. First, I focused on understanding the presence of outflowing cold gas around galaxies. I performed numerical simulations to study how outflows, launched from a central galaxy undergoing starbursts, affect the circumgalactic medium. I model an outflow as a rapidly moving bubble of gas above the disk and analyse its evolution. I sampled a distribution of parameters with a grid of two-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations –with and without– radiative cooling, assuming primordial gas composition.

  • NL#153 July/August
    AAAS Publication for the members N of the Americanewsletter Astronomical Society July/August 2010, Issue 153 CONTENTS President's Column Debra Meloy Elmegreen, [email protected] 2 th From the Moon over Miami, palm trees, and a riverwalk set the perfect scene for our 216 meeting, a typically intimate summer gathering with about 800 attendees. Kudos and thanks to Kevin and Executive Office his Marvel-ous staff for another smooth and well-executed gathering. It was all the more special because of meeting jointly with the Solar Physics Division, which happens every three years. It is nice when the smaller divisions are able to overlap with the general meeting, to foster more interactions among astronomers who work in a variety of fields. Dramatic results from new 3 missions such as Herschel, Hinode and SDO, WISE, CoRot, Cassini-Huygens observations of Journals Update Titan, CMB observations from the South Pole, progress on ALMA, and solar tales from SPD Hale prize winner Marcia Neugebauer and Harvey prize winner Brian Welsch were among the many exciting presentations. 4 Three newly funded opportunities were announced: the Doxsey Award for thesis-presenting Council Actions graduate students to travel to the AAS, the Lancelot Berkeley Prize for meritorious recently published research to be presented at the AAS, and the Kavli Award to a distinguished plenary AAS speaker, as discussed elsewhere in this Newsletter. 5 I was thinking about what makes AAS meetings special. We gather for the science, of course; the general meetings provide opportunities to get a firsthand update on key advances, which help Secretary's Corner inform not only our research but also our teaching.

    Rapid numerical solutions for the Mukhanov-Sasaki equation 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 4, W. I. J. Haddadin ∗ and W. J. Handley y 1Kavli Institute for Cosmology, Madingley Road, Cambridge, CB3 0HA, UK 2Astrophysics Group, Cavendish Laboratory, J.J.Thomson Avenue, Cambridge, CB3 0HE, UK 3King's College, King's Parade, Cambridge CB2 1ST, UK 4Gonville & Caius College, Trinity Street, Cambridge, CB2 1TA, UK We develop a novel technique for numerically computing the primordial power spectra of comoving curvature perturbations. By finding suitable analytic approximations for different regions of the mode equations and stitching them together, we reduce the solution of a differential equation to repeated matrix multiplication. This results in a wavenumber-dependent increase in speed which is orders of magnitude faster than traditional approaches at intermediate and large wavenumbers. We demonstrate the method's efficacy on the challenging case of a stepped quadratic potential with kinetic dominance. We further generalise to a novel class of frozen initial conditions which prove capable of emulating a quantised primordial power spectrum. I. INTRODUCTION ing the Mukhanov-Sasaki equation. In all cases this ap- proach gives a wavenumber-dependent increase in speed, With only six parameters, the ΛCDM concordance and for large wavenumbers this method presents the only model of the Universe explains the large-scale structure, currently available method for computing fully numerical present state, and evolution of the cosmos to high pre- solutions that integrate across the entire evolution of the cision [1].

    Impact case study (REF3b) Institution: University College London (UCL) Unit of Assessment: 9 – Physics Title of case study: Stimulating public interest in the dark side of the universe 1. Summary of the impact Cosmologists at UCL – based in the Department of Physics and Astronomy and the Mullard Space Science Laboratory (MSSL) – conduct research into dark matter and dark energy through their involvement in a number of space missions and ground-based projects. This research has been shared with the public through a large number of talks, blogs, articles in the media, and television and radio programmes, stimulating significant public interest and discussion. Increased public understanding and interaction with the work was further achieved through a competition to improve mapping of dark matter. The research also influenced the creative practice of two artists, inspiring artworks that have been exhibited internationally and viewed by over 1 million people in total. 2. Underpinning research Whilst we know the universe is accelerating, the cause of its acceleration is still unknown – is it dark energy, or could it be explained by modifying Einstein’s theory of gravity? Another mystery is the nature of cold dark matter, a type of matter that is thought to account for a large part of the total mass of the universe, and the existence of which is inferred from the gravitational attraction of galaxies and stars. Cosmologists at UCL have been investigating these and other problems since 2004, when cosmology was established as a research area within the university. These researchers have played leadership roles in the following cutting-edge cosmology projects: (i) The Dark Energy Survey (DES) has been UCL cosmology’s ‘flagship project’.

I have set numerous defini- tive constraints on early-Universe physics using cosmic microwave background (CMB) data, including the first observational constraints on eternal inflation, the first full-sky constraints on topological de- fects called textures, and the definitive limits on the Universe's anisotropy and non-trivial topology. I have influenced the design of multiple next-generation CMB experiments: my public forecasting code, cmb4cast, has been used by the CMB-S4, CORE, EBEX-IDS, LiteBIRD, Simons Array and Simons Ob- servatory collaborations. In recent years, I have focused on identifying the cause of the tension between estimates of the Hubble Constant from the local Universe and the CMB using upcoming multi-messenger datasets.
