The Intrinsic Multiphase Gas--Black Hole Connection across Scales in IllustrisTNG

Xiaoxia Zhang, Taotao Fang, Shulan Yan +2

The relationship between supermassive black holes and the multiphase circumgalactic medium is central to understanding the co-evolution of galaxies and their central black holes. W…

COSMOS-Web: Galaxy Size and Surface Brightness Evolution at Rest-Frame 1.22 m Since

Si-Yue Yu, Andreas L. Faisst, Taotao Fang +7

We present the evolution of galaxy size and surface brightness in the rest-frame band (1.22 m), tracing the stellar mass distribution, over , using a samp…

Probing the Hot Gaseous Halos of Milky Way-like Galaxies in the TNG50 simulation

Zhijie Zhang, Xiaoxia Zhang, Taotao Fang +9

The origin and structure of the hot (K) gaseous halo around Milky Way (MW)-mass galaxies provide a critical test for galaxy formation models. We perform a comprehensi…

White Dwarfs with Infrared Excess from LAMOST Data Release 5

Lin Wang, Xiaoxia Zhang, Junfeng Wang +5

Infrared excess is an important probe of sub-stellar companions and/or debris disks around white dwarfs (WDs). Such systems are still rare for in-depth understanding of their forma…

Effects of spin on constraining the seeds and growth of supermassive black holes in Quasars

Xiaoxia Zhang, Youjun Lu, Taotao Fang

The existence of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) at redshift raises the problem of how such SMBHs can grow up within the cosmic time (\,Gyr) from sm…
