For Monte Carlo radiative transfer, the most common radiative transfer method in 3D, the design of a spatial grid is important and non-trivial. Common choices include hierarchical octree and unstructured Voronoi grids, each of which has advantages and limitations. Tetrahedral grids, commonly used in ray-tracing computer graphics, can be an interesting alternative option. We aim to investigate the possibilities, advantages, and limitations of tetrahedral grids in the context of Monte Carlo radiative transfer. In particular, we want to compare the performance of tetrahedral grids to other commonly used grid structures. We implemented a tetrahedral grid structure, based on the open-source library TetGen, in the generic Monte Carlo radiative transfer code SKIRT. Tetrahedral grids can be imported from external applications or they can be constructed and adaptively refined within SKIRT. We implemented an efficient grid traversal method based on Pl\"ucker coordinates and Pl\"ucker products. The correct implementation of the tetrahedral grid construction and the grid traversal algorithm in SKIRT were validated using 2D radiative transfer benchmark problems. Using a simple 3D model, we compared the performance of tetrahedral, octree, and Voronoi grids. With a constant cell count, the octree grid outperforms the tetrahedral and Voronoi grids in terms of traversal speed, whereas the tetrahedral grid is poorer than the other grids in terms of grid quality. All told, we find that the performance of tetrahedral grids is relatively poor compared to octree and Voronoi grids. Although the adaptively constructed tetrahedral grids might not be favourable in most media representative of astrophysical simulation models, they still form an interesting unstructured alternative to Voronoi grids for specific applications. In particular, they might prove useful for radiative transfer post-processing of hydrodynamical simulations run on tetrahedral or unstructured grids.","PeriodicalId":8585,"journal":{"name":"Astronomy & Astrophysics","volume":"65 51","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141806506","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, campaigns to identify these overdensities by searching for Lyman-break galaxies (LBGs) and Lyman alpha emitters (LAEs) have had mixed results. These may be explained by either the small field of view of some of the experiments, the broad redshift ranges targeted by LBG searches, and the inherently high uncertainty of quasar redshifts estimated from ultraviolet emission lines, which makes it difficult to place the Ly-alpha emission line within a narrowband filter. Here, we present a 3 square degree search ($ 1000$ pMpc2) for LAEs around the $z=6.9$ quasar VIK J2348--3054 using the Dark Energy CAMera (DECam) housed on the 4m Blanco telescope, finding 38 LAEs. The systemic redshift of VIK J2348--3054 is known from ALMA CII observations and places the Ly-alpha emission line of companions within the NB964 narrowband of DECam. This is the largest field-of-view LAE search around a $z>6$ quasar conducted to date. We find that this field is sim ten times more overdense than Chandra Deep-Field South, observed previously with the same instrumental setup as well as several combined blank fields. This is strong evidence that VIK J2348--3054 resides in an overdensity of LAEs over several Mpc. Surprisingly, we find a lack of LAEs within 5 physical Mpc of the quasar and take this to most likely be evidence of quasar-suppressing star formation in its immediate vicinity. This result highlights the importance of performing overdensity searches over large areas to properly assess the density of those regions of the Universe.","PeriodicalId":8585,"journal":{"name":"Astronomy & Astrophysics","volume":"40 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141807631","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Their light curve, moreover, is widely used in cosmological studies as it constitutes a reliable distance indicator on extragalactic scales. Among the mechanisms proposed to explain the Type Ia supernovae (SNe), the single- and double-degenerate channels are thought to be the dominant ones, which implies a different distribution of time delays between the progenitor formation and the explosion. In this paper, we aim to determine the dominant mechanism by comparing a compilation of Type Ia SN rates with those computed from various cosmic star-formation histories coupled with different delay-time distribution functions. We also evaluate the relative contributions of both channels. By using a least-squares fitting procedure, we modeled the observations of Type Ia SN rates assuming different combinations of three recent cosmic star-formation rates and seven delay-time distributions. The goodness of these fits are statistically quantified by the $ test. For two of the three cosmic star-formation rates, the single degenerate scenario provides the most accurate explanation for the observations, while a combination of 34 single-degenerate- and 66 double-degenerate delay-time distributions is more plausible for the remaining tested cosmic star-formation rates. Though dependent on the assumed cosmic star-formation rate, we find arguments in favor of the single-degenerate model. From the theoretic point of view, at least sim 34 of the Type Ia SN must have been produced through the single-degenerate channel to account for the observations. The wide, double-degenerate mechanism slightly under-predicts the observations at redshift $z 1$, unless the cosmic SFR flattens in that regime. On the contrary, although the purely close double-degenerate scenario can be ruled out, we cannot rule out a mixed scenario with single- and double-degenerate progenitors.","PeriodicalId":8585,"journal":{"name":"Astronomy & Astrophysics","volume":"58 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141807093","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It specifically focuses on scenarios with minimal external (\"nurture\") influences such as mergers and substantial tidal interactions. The study uncovers the varied evolutionary paths of disk galaxies of different sizes, shaped by the initial conditions of their parent dark matter halos and subsequent internal processes. Thus, we can explore the ``nature'' of these galaxies. From the TNG50 simulation, a sample of 836 central disk galaxies with tiny stellar halos is chosen to study the inherent evolution of galaxies driven by nature. These galaxies are classified as compact, normal, or extended by referencing their locations on the mass-size ($M_ $) diagram. Scaling relations were then established to measure the correlations driven by internal mechanisms. This research demonstrates the distinctive evolutionary pathways of galaxies with different sizes in IllustrisTNG simulations, primarily driven by their nature. It is confirmed that disk galaxies inherit the angular momentum of their parent dark matter halos. More compact galaxies form earlier within halos that exhibit a lower specific angular momentum through heightened star formation during the early phase at redshifts above 2. During the later phase, the size of extended galaxies experiences more pronounced growth by accreting gas with a high angular momentum. Additionally, we reveal that many key characteristics of galaxies are linked to their mass and size: (1) compact galaxies tend to exhibit higher metal content, proportional to the potential well, $ M_ star R_ $; (2) compact galaxies host more massive bulges and black holes, along with a higher central concentration. Furthermore, our analysis indicates that galaxies of all types continue to actively engage in star formation, with no evident signs of quenching attributed to their varying sizes and angular momenta.","PeriodicalId":8585,"journal":{"name":"Astronomy & Astrophysics","volume":"32 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141807312","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These non-radial modes form a characteristic period ratio with the dominant first overtone of around 0.61. The incidence rate of this phenomenon varies from population to population. It is also strongly dependent on the quality of the analyzed data. Current models aimed at explaining these additional signals involve non-radial modes of degrees of 8 and 9. Using synthetic horizontal branch populations, we investigate the incidence rate of first-overtone RR Lyrae stars with non-radial modes, depending on the population properties, namely, ages and metallicities. We compare our results with the observed results for globular clusters and the vast collection of field first-overtone RR Lyrae stars to test the model predictions. We used synthetic horizontal branches combined with pulsation models to predict how the incidence rate would depend on the age and metallicity of the population. To test whether the results based on synthetic horizontal branches are realistic, we compared them to incidence rates observed by TESS in first-overtone field RR Lyrae stars, using photometric metallicity values from a newly established calibration for TESS. The analysis of synthetic horizontal branches indicates that the incidence rate decreases with decreasing metallicity. We inferred the photometric metallicity for RR Lyrae stars observed by TESS and showed that the theoretical predictions are in agreement with the observations. Using the same method, we also concluded that the metallicity distribution of RR Lyrae stars showing an additional mode with a period-ratio around $0.68$ appears to be different from that of 1) all first-overtone stars and 2) those showing additional non-radial modes.","PeriodicalId":8585,"journal":{"name":"Astronomy & Astrophysics","volume":"92 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141807810","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
