Black Hole Growth and Feedback in Isolated Romulus25 Dwarf Galaxies
Ray Sharma, Alyson Brooks, Rachel S. Somerville +4
We investigate the effects of massive black hole growth on the structural evolution of dwarf galaxies within the Romulus25 cosmological hydrodynamical simulation. We study a sample…
The Formation of Ultra-Diffuse Galaxies in the RomulusC Galaxy Cluster Simulation
Michael Tremmel, Anna C. Wright, Alyson M. Brooks +3
We study the origins of 122 ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) in the {\sc RomulusC} zoom-in cosmological simulation of a galaxy cluster (M M), one…
Disentangling nature from nurture: tracing the origin of seed black holes
Priyamvada Natarajan, Angelo Ricarte, Vivienne Baldassare +16
The origin and properties of black hole seeds that grow to produce the detected population of supermassive black holes are unconstrained at present. Despite the existence of severa…
Ultraviolet Signatures of the Multiphase Intracluster and Circumgalactic Media in the RomulusC Simulation
Iryna S. Butsky, Joseph N. Burchett, Daisuke Nagai +3
Quasar absorption-line studies in the ultraviolet (UV) can uniquely probe the nature of the multiphase cool-warm (10^4 < T < 10^6 K) gas in and around galaxy clusters, promising to…
Tracing Black Hole and Galaxy Co-evolution in the Romulus Simulations
Angelo Ricarte, Michael Tremmel, Priyamvada Natarajan +1
We study the link between supermassive black hole growth and the stellar mass assembly of their host galaxies in the state-of-the-art Romulus suite of simulations. The cosmological…
Where are the Intermediate Mass Black Holes?
Jillian Bellovary, Alyson Brooks, Monica Colpi +7
Observational evidence has been mounting for the existence of intermediate mass black holes (IMBHs, 10^2-10^5 Msun), but observing them at all, much less constraining their masses,…
Astro2020 science white paper: The gravitational wave view of massive black holes
Monica Colpi, Kelly Holley-Bockelmann, Tamara Bogdanovic +16
Coalescing, massive black-hole (MBH) binaries are the most powerful sources of gravitational waves (GWs) in the Universe, which makes MBH science a prime focus for ongoing and upco…
Ultraviolet Perspectives on Diffuse Gas in the Largest Cosmic Structures
Joseph N. Burchett, Daisuke Nagai, Iryna Butsky +31
The past decade has seen an explosion of discoveries and new insights into the diffuse gas within galaxies, galaxy clusters, and the filaments composing the Cosmic Web. A new decad…
Unveiling the Galaxy Cluster - Cosmic Web Connection with X-ray observations in the Next Decade
Stephen A. Walker, Daisuke Nagai, A. Simionescu +35
In recent years, the outskirts of galaxy clusters have emerged as one of the new frontiers and unique laboratories for studying the growth of large scale structure in the universe.…
