Radiation Hydrodynamical Simulations of the Birth of Intermediate-Mass Black Holes in the First Galaxies
Muhammad A. Latif, Sadegh Khochfar, Dominik Schleicher +1
The leading contenders for the seeds of quasars are direct-collapse black holes (DCBHs) forming in atomically-cooled halos at 20. However, the Lyman-Werner (LW) UV…
Formation of supermassive black hole seeds in nuclear star clusters via gas accretion and runaway collisions
Arpan Das, Dominik R. G. Schleicher, Nathan W. C. Leigh +1
More than two hundred supermassive black holes (SMBHs) of masses have been discovered at . One promising pathway for the formation o…
Small-N Collisional Dynamics V: Beyond the Realm of Not-So-Small-N
Carlos Barrera, Nathan W. C. Leigh, Bastián Reinoso +2
Direct collisions between finite-sized particles occur commonly in many areas of astrophysics. Such collisions are typically mediated by chaotic, bound gravitational interactions i…
Stellar Initial Mass Function over a range of redshifts
Rafeel Riaz, Dominik R. G. Schleicher, Siegfried Vanaverbeke +1
The stellar Initial Mass Function (IMF) seems to be close to universal in the local star-forming regions. However, this quantity of a newborn stellar population responds differentl…
Synthetic observations of deuterated molecules in massive prestellar cores
Joaquin Zamponi F., Andrea Giannetti, Stefano Bovino +5
Young massive stars are usually found embedded in dense massive molecular clumps and are known for being highly obscured and distant. During their formation process, deuteration is…
Formation of Pop II star clusters in the aftermath of a pair instability supernova
Muhammad A. Latif, Dominik Schleicher
Pop II stars formed a few hundred million years after the Big Bang were key drivers of cosmic reionization and building blocks of high redshift galaxies. How and when these stars f…
