An Extremely Luminous Flare Recorded from a Supermassive Black Hole
Matthew J. Graham, Barry McKernan, K. E. Saavik Ford +17
Since their discovery more than 60 years ago, accreting supermassive black holes in active galactic nuclei (AGN) were recognized as highly variable sources, requiring an extremely…
Handy Relation Between Binary Black Hole Merger Times and Host Galaxy Properties
Kelly Holley-Bockelmann, Fazeel Khan, Isaiah Williams +6
Over the past 15 years, the evidence has clearly demonstrated that massive black hole (MBH) binary merger timescales depend strongly on the structural and kinematic properties of t…
Simulating quasar microlensing light curves: High magnification events
Favio Neira, Timo Anguita, Georgios Vernardos
Quasar microlensing can be used to constrain important astrophysical properties, such as the accretion disk size and the amount of stars in the lensing galaxy. The associated brigh…
Emission Line Diagnostics for IMBHs in Dwarf Galaxies: Accounting for BH Seeding and ULX Excitation
Chris T. Richardson, Jordan Wels, Kristen Garofali +13
Dwarf AGN serve as the ideal systems for identifying intermediate mass black holes (IMBHs) down to the most elusive regimes (). However, the ubiquitousl…
The mass-dependent UVJ diagram at cosmic noon: A challenge for galaxy evolution models and dust radiative transfer
Andrea Gebek, Benedikt Diemer, Marco Martorano +9
Context. The UVJ color-color diagram is a widely used diagnostic to separate star-forming and quiescent galaxies. Observational data from photometric surveys reveal a strong stella…
Learning the Universe: Cosmological and Astrophysical Parameter Inference with Galaxy Luminosity Functions and Colours
Christopher C. Lovell, Tjitske Starkenburg, Matthew Ho +9
We perform the first direct cosmological and astrophysical parameter inference from the combination of galaxy luminosity functions and colours using a simulation based inference ap…
