3/3/16: SO/NOAO Joint Colloquium Series: Mary Putman, Columbia University
Title: Gas Flows at Various Astronomical Scales
Abstract:
I will discuss gas flows onto dark matter halos of various sizes and include results from observations and simulations. These include gas flows for local galaxy clusters, the dwarf spiral galaxy M33, and our Milky Way. The gas transitions during the flows and is key to understanding ongoing star formation.
