Revisiting the Galactic Winds in M82 I: the recent starburst and launch of outflow in simulations
Simulations were used to model how star formation and stellar feedback drive galactic outflows in M82. The study found a nuclear starburst lasting 20-25 Myr, but noted discrepancies in mass and velocity compared to observations. Key findings include the dominance of cool gas transport and a significant velocity mismatch between simulated and observed outflow speeds.
