Dust Survival in Galactic Winds

This repository contains three-dimensional volumetric data from an Eulerian hydrodynamical simulation (conducted on a uniform Cartesian grid) generated by the Cholla hydrodynamics code. The datasets contain snapshots (full-grid, projections, and slices) in the HDF5 format of a multi-phase medium in which a hot, diffuse, dust-free background wind accelerates a cool, dense cloud of gas and dust. This scenario is intended to represent a supernova-driven galactic outflow, in which hot supernova winds are thought to accelerate cool interstellar medium material out of the galactic disk into the surrounding circumgalactic medium. There are three separate datasets for simulations corresponding to three cloud evolutionary scenarios: long-term cloud survival (surv), marginal cloud survival (disr), and cloud destruction (dest). Projection and slice images of the simulations are also included in this repository.

Cholla Galactic OutfLow Simulations (CGOLS)

These datasets contain full hydro-field snapshots from the galactic outflow simulations in the CGOLS suite, models I-V. The datasets were generated using the Cholla hydrodynamics code (https://github.com/cholla-hydro/cholla); descriptions of the models are in the associated publications (Schneider & Robertson 2018, ApJ; Schneider et al. 2018, ApJ; Schneider et al. 2020, ApJ; and Schneider & Mao, 2024, ApJ). Each hdf5 dataset is numbered according to the simulation time of the snapshot, in Myr. Fields include density, x momentum, y momentum, z momentum, total energy, and thermal energy (for models I - III), as well as a passive scalar field (models IV and V). 2 dimensional density and temperature projections, as well as slices along each midplane are also included if they exist.
