Observational studies have established a remarkably tight power-law relationship between the H I masses and sizes of late-type galaxies, known as the H I mass-size relation. This relation has been shown to persist across various models of a galaxy's H I surface density profile. Using the Simba cosmological simulations, we investigate the robustness of this relation under different feedback prescriptions, including cases where specific feedback mechanisms are absent. While the global properties of galaxies are significantly affected by changes in feedback, the H I mass-size relation remains intact. Moreover, its parameters consistently align with the best available empirical measurements. We analyze the H I mass distributions of galaxies and demonstrate that, regardless of the feedback scenario, galaxies within a given H I mass bin exhibit outer H I radial profiles well approximated by an exponential function. Furthermore, the exponential decline rate remains remarkably similar across different physical prescriptions. We attribute the persistence of the H I mass-size relation to this inherent self-similarity in the H I mass distributions.

Simba: The average properties of the circumgalactic medium of $2 \leq z \leq 3$ quasars are determined primarily by stellar feedback
利用Simba宇宙流体动力学模拟软件包研究了反馈对$2 \leq z \leq 3$类星体周围环星系介质和星系际介质的影响。我们发现辛巴类星体是吸积速度最快的黑洞,并表明它们在热光度和相关强度上与真正的类星体很好地匹配。我们提取莱曼α(Ly-a)吸收光谱通过在不同的横向距离(10千秒差距$\lesssim b \lesssim$ 10百万秒差距)周围的类星体,并比较观察到的平均Ly-a吸收曲线。观测结果被很好地再现,除了在100 kpc的前景类星体,辛巴过度产生吸收;这可能会通过包括类星体本身的电离来减轻。通过比较不同的反馈模块激活的运行,我们发现,(机械)AGN反馈对周围的CGM几乎没有影响,即使在这些最高亮度的黑洞,而恒星反馈有显着的影响。通过进一步研究CGM气体的热力学和运动学性质,我们发现恒星反馈而不是活动星系核反馈是决定$z\sim 2-3$类星体周围CGM平均性质的主要物理驱动因素。我们还比较了我们的结果与以前的作品,并发现辛巴预测更多的吸收在100千秒差距内比尼克斯和Illustris模拟,表明Ly-a吸收曲线可以是一个强大的约束模拟。VLT-MUSE等工具和即将进行的调查(例如,WEAVE和DESI)承诺进一步改进此类约束。
