Speaker

Dr Peter Mitchell (Leiden Observatory)

Description

I will present scientific results from a Ramses-RT zoom-in simulation of a z=3 galaxy, run including the implementation of Monte Carlo tracer particles recently developed by Corentin Cadiou. I will show how tracer particles can be used to identify the Lagrangian origin of the gas emitting and scattering Lyman-alpha photons, and discuss how this informs the interpretation of recent observations made by the MUSE guaranteed time observing team.
