Abstract:

Dust is an essential component in understanding star formation properties of galaxies both observationally and theoretically. When we consider the absorption of UV light by dust, the dust abundance and the grain size distribution are both important. Dust is formed and destroyed in multiple processes, which depend on the local metallicity, density and temperature. We implement these processes of dust into hydrodynamic simulation code GADGET3-Osaka taking into account of the evolution of dust size distribution. In order to realize it, we include dust formation end destruction processes in ISM, which are not only generation and destruction by supernovae but also accretion, coagulation and shattering. We obtained the time evolution of the abundance Ωdust(z), the mass function and the relation between dust-to-gas mass ratio to metallicity of each galaxy and radial profiles of dust grains. They agree with the corresponding observations.
