Description
The inefficiency of galaxies in converting their baryons into stars
motivates the inclusion of feedback into models of galaxy formation.
These models also make predictions for galaxy disk properties and the
structure of the Circumgalactic Medium (CGM). The multi-phase
structure of the CGM poses a challenge for feedback models,
particularly in producing the abundance of low-ionization potential
ions. In the context of these challenges, we will describe the
implementation and results of the ``Physically Evolved Winds'' subgrid
model in our N-Body/SPH code. This model focuses on the evolution of
cold clouds travelling through the hot CGM. We will evaluate how well
this model also performs in regulating star formation, reproducing
disk morphology and injecting metals into the CGM.
