High resolution modelling of [CII], [CI], [OIII], and CO line emission from the interstellar medium and circumgalactic medium of a star-forming galaxy at z ∼ 6.5

The circumgalactic medium (CGM) is a crucial component of galaxy evolution, but thus far its physical properties are highly unconstrained. As of yet, no cosmological simulation has reached convergence when it comes to constraining the cold and dense gas fraction of the CGM. Such components are also...

Zusammenfassung:The circumgalactic medium (CGM) is a crucial component of galaxy evolution, but thus far its physical properties are highly unconstrained. As of yet, no cosmological simulation has reached convergence when it comes to constraining the cold and dense gas fraction of the CGM. Such components are also challenging to observe directly, as they require sub-millimetre (sub-mm) instruments with a high sensitivity to extended and mostly diffuse emission. We present a state-of-the-art theoretical effort at modelling the [CII] 158 μm, [CI](1−0) 609 μm, [CI](2−1) 370 μm, CO(3−2) 867 μm, and [OIII] 88 μm line emissions that arise from the interstellar medium (ISM) and CGM of galaxies, with the goal of studying the contribution from different cold ( T
