The Lifecycle and Emission Properties of PAHs in Cosmological Hydrodynamic Galaxy Formation Simulations

We present the first cosmological model for the lifecycle and luminous properties of PAHs in galaxies as they evolve from z = 6 to 0. We model 40 zoom-in galaxies, coupled with an on-the-fly model for the evolution of dust grains in the ISM. We approximate PAHs as ultrasmall ( a...
