"Empirically, the star formation rate of a galaxy depends only on its molecular gas mass. However, recent observations indicate that star formation in stellar spheroids systematically falls below these scaling relations. It has been suggested that the global galactic environment can affect the gas dynamics such that star formation is heavily suppressed. This is investigated using a suite of hydrodynamic simulations of isolated galaxies, which includes a new sub-grid model that captures the influence of galactic dynamics on star formation. The parameter space covered by the simulations ranges from disc galaxies to spheroids, with initial gas fractions varying from 1-20 per cent. This enables a detailed exploration of how differences in the gravitational potential affect the gas properties and star formation rate, as well as how it interlinks with the gas fraction. The shear generated by the the deep gravitational potential of spheroids is found to drive turbulence in the gas, leading to a dynamical suppression of fragmentation and star formation. This dynamical suppression of star formation is enhanced at higher stellar surface densities and lower gas fractions. This implies that the physics of star formation can limit and regulate the baryon cycle at low redshifts and high galaxy masses."^^ . "2021" . . . . . . . "Jindra Sophie"^^ . "Gensior"^^ .
