RIGEL: Ultra-faint dwarf galaxy diversity shaped by inhomogeneous cosmic reionization
Ultra-faint dwarf galaxies (UFDs) are among the smallest and oldest galaxies in the Universe and are widely regarded as relics of cosmic reionization. To investigate how reionization quenches star formation and shapes the diversity of UFDs, we present a suite of eight cosmological zoom-in simulations of isolated UFDs w...
