We investigate the formation of dense stellar clumps in a suite of high-resolution cosmological zoom-in simulations of a massive, star-forming galaxy at z ∼ 2 under the presence of strong quasar winds. Our simulations include multiphase ISM physics f... Read More about Dense stellar clump formation driven by strong quasar winds in the FIRE cosmological hydrodynamic simulations.
