Description
Observational surveys of the distribution of matter in the universe are becoming ever more precise and continue to be extended to smaller scales and higher redshifts. To full exploit the observations, similar progress is required on the theoretical side. The redistribution of baryons by galactic winds, which is a major bottleneck in our understanding of the evolution of galaxies and large-scale structure, requires a convergence between models of galaxy formation and cosmology. I will present recent results from the FLAMINGO and COLIBRE suites of cosmological, hydrodynamical simulations, which provide insight into the physics of galaxy formation and the importance of baryonic effects for cosmology.
