We examine X-ray scaling relations for massive halos ($M_{500}>10^{12.3}M_\odot$) in the Simba galaxy formation simulation. The X-ray weighted luminosity, $L_X$ vs. $M_{500}$ has power-law slopes $\approx\frac{5}{3}$ and $\approx\frac{8}{3}$ above and below $10^{13.5} M_{\odot}$, deviating from the self-similarity increasingly to low masses. $T_X-M_{500}$ is self-similar above this mass, and slightly shallower below it. Comparing Simba to observed $T_X$ scalings, we find that $L_X$, $L_X$-weighted [Fe/H], and entropies at $0.1 R_{200}$ ($S_{0.1}$) and $R_{500}$ ($S_{500}$) all match reasonably well. $S_{500}-T_X$ is consistent with self-similar expectations, but $S_{0.1}-T_X$ is shallower at lower $T_X$, suggesting the dominant form of heating moves from gravitational shocks in the outskirts to non-gravitational feedback in the cores of smaller groups. Simba matches observations of $L_X$ versus central galaxy stellar mass $M_*$, predicting the additional trend that star-forming galaxies have higher $L_X(M_*)$. The electron density profiles for $M_{500}>10^{14}M_\odot$ halos show a $\sim 0.1R_{200}$ core, but at lower masses the profiles are flat at all radii. $T_X$ profiles are flat for $M_{500}<10^{13}M_{\odot}$, and increasingly centrally peaked with mass. The resulting entropy profiles are centrally depressed for the highest and lowest mass halos but flatter for intermediate-mass halos, with $S_{\rm core}\approx200-400$ keV cm$^2$. Simba's [Fe/H] profile matches observations in the core but over-predicts at larger radii, suggesting overly widespread metal distribution. We show that Simba's bipolar jet AGN feedback is most responsible for increasingly evacuating lower-mass halos, thereby suppressing core densities and raising core entropies to improve agreement with X-ray scaling relations.

\textsc{The Three Hundred} project: The \textsc{Gizmo-Simba} run
本文介绍了\textsc{The Three Hundred}项目中的一个新的星系团模拟工具包\textsc{Gizmo-Simba}。\textsc{The Three Hundred}由324个星团的缩放再模拟组成,其中$M_{200}\gtrsim 10^{14.8}M_\odot$来自MultiDark-Planck $N$ -body模拟,使用几个流体动力学和半解析代码运行。\textsc{Gizmo-Simba}套件在非常成功的{ \sc Simba}模拟的基础上增加了一个最先进的星系形成模型,并进行了适度的重新校准,以匹配$z=0$星团恒星特性。比较\textsc{The Three Hundred}变焦运行与\textsc{Gadget-X},我们发现内在的差异,恒星和气体质量分数的演变,BCG年龄,星系色星等图,与\textsc{Gizmo-Simba}一般提供了一个很好的匹配,以现有的数据在$z \approx 0$。\textsc{Gizmo-Simba}独特的黑洞增长和反馈模型与在中等质量范围内观测到的BH标度关系一致,并预测在目前很少观测到的高质量下斜率略有不同。\textsc{Gizmo-Simba}提供了一个新的和新颖的平台来阐明星系,气体和黑洞的共同演化在密集的宇宙环境。
