TL;DR: The Virgo Consortium's EAGLE project as discussed by the authors is a suite of hydrodynamical simulations that follow the formation of galaxies and black holes in representative volumes, where thermal energy is injected into the gas, allowing winds to develop without predetermined speed or mass loading factors.

Modelling feedback from stars and black holes in galaxy mergers
TL;DR: In this paper, a coarse-grained representation of the properties of the interstellar medium (ISM) and BH accretion starting from basic physical assumptions is proposed to incorporate feedback from star formation and black hole accretion into simulations of isolated and merging galaxies.

Modeling feedback from stars and black holes in galaxy mergers
TL;DR: In this paper, a coarse-grained representation of the properties of the interstellar medium and black hole accretion starting from basic physical assumptions is proposed, and the impact of these effects can be included on resolved scales.

A Unified, Merger-driven Model of the Origin of Starbursts, Quasars, the Cosmic X-Ray Background, Supermassive Black Holes, and Galaxy Spheroids

TL;DR: In this article, an evolutionary model for starbursts, quasars, and spheroidal galaxies is presented, in which mergers between gas-rich galaxies drive nuclear inflows of gas, producing starburst and feeding the buried growth of supermassive black holes (BHs) until feedback expels gas and renders a briefly visible optical quasar.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evolution of binary stars and the effect of tides on binary populations
TL;DR: In this paper, a rapid binary-evolution algorithm was proposed to model the formation and evolution of binary systems, including all aspects of single-star evolution, features such as mass transfer, mass accretion, common envelope evolution, collisions, supernova kicks and angular momentum loss mechanisms.
