Galaxy merger-driven signatures in massive black hole pair hosts across cosmic time
Pranav Satheesh, Aklant K. Bhowmick, Laura Blecha
Galaxy mergers can drive gas toward galactic nuclei, enhancing both star formation and black hole accretion in post-merger galaxies. Here we use the IllustrisTNG-50 simulation and…
The lifetimes and properties of Little Red Dots in the AMBRA simulation
Patrick LaChance, Yihao Zhou, Aklant Kumar Bhowmick +6
We identify and analyze the little red dots (LRDs) in the AMBRA cosmological hydrodynamic simulation, by producing mock observations of the galaxies and active galactic nuclei (AGN…
Supermassive Black Hole Assembly from Heavy Seeds with Dynamical Friction in the BRAHMA Simulations: Implications for JWST, LISA, and the Local Universe
Aklant K. Bhowmick, Laura Blecha, Paul Torrey +8
The JWST discoveries of supermassive black holes (BHs) at may provide key insights into their seeding origins. Using new BRAHMA cosmological sim…
Learning the Universe at High Redshifts: Impact of Accretion Modeling on Early Black Hole Growth
Jonathan Kho, Aklant K. Bhowmick, Rainer Weinberger +8
JWST discoveries of the earliest () supermassive black holes (BHs, ) challenge the BH seeding and accretion models of most cosmol…
The LISA Astrophysics MBHcatalogues Project: A comparison of predictions of simulated massive black hole binaries
David Izquierdo-Villalba, Melanie Habouzit, Matteo Bonetti +67
In the hierarchical paradigm of galaxy formation, central massive black holes (MBHs) are expected to coalesce after the merger of their host galaxies. One of the main goals of the…
First results of AMBRA: Abundant Seeds and Early Mergers as a Pathway to the First Massive Black Holes
Yihao Zhou, Aklant Kumar Bhowmick, Tiziana Di Matteo +6
AMBRA combines the large cosmological volume and statistical power of ASTRID with the physically motivated gas-based black hole seeding models from BRAHMA. Motivated by JWST's disc…
