Abstract

Cosmic rays (CRs) are a non-thermal energy component in the interstellar and circumgalactic medium (CGM) that provide an additional feedback channel beyond thermal and kinetic feedback from stars and AGN. They influence galaxy evolution by altering gas properties, regulating star formation, and shaping galactic outflows. We investigate these effects using cosmological zoom-in simulations, which incorporate CR transport and feedback on top of the Auriga model.
