First Light and Reionization Epoch Simulations (FLARES) -- XV: The physical properties of super-massive black holes and their impact on galaxies in the early universe
Stephen M. Wilkins, Jussi K. Kuusisto, Dimitrios Irodotou +9
Understanding the co-evolution of super-massive black holes (SMBHs) and their host galaxies remains a key challenge of extragalactic astrophysics, particularly the earliest stages…
First Light And Reionisation Epoch Simulations (FLARES) XIII: The Lyman-continuum emission of high-redshift galaxies
Louise T. C. Seeyave, Stephen M. Wilkins, Jussi K. Kuusisto +10
The history of reionisation is highly dependent on the ionising properties of high-redshift galaxies. It is therefore important to have a solid understanding of how the ionising pr…
Galaxy Evolution in based Cosmologies
Will J. Roper, Stephen M. Wilkins, Stephen Riggs +5
We present the first study of galaxy evolution in based cosmologies. We find that recent JWST observations of massive galaxies at extremely high redshifts are consistent w…
FLARES IX: The Physical Mechanisms Driving Compact Galaxy Formation and Evolution
William J. Roper, Christopher C. Lovell, Aswin P. Vijayan +6
In the FLARES (First Light And Reionisation Epoch Simulations) suite of hydrodynamical simulations, we find the high redshift () intrinsic size-luminosity relation is, surpris…
First Light And Reionisation Epoch Simulations (FLARES) VIII. The Emergence of Passive Galaxies at
Christopher C. Lovell, Will Roper, Aswin P. Vijayan +9
Passive galaxies are ubiquitous in the local universe, and various physical channels have been proposed that lead to this passivity. To date, robust passive galaxy candidates have…
First Light And Reionisation Epoch Simulations (FLARES) VII: The Star Formation and Metal Enrichment Histories of Galaxies in the early Universe
Stephen M. Wilkins, Aswin P. Vijayan, Christopher C. Lovell +8
The star formation and metal enrichment histories of galaxies - at any epoch - constitute one of the key properties of galaxies, and their measurement is a core aim of observationa…
First Light And Reionisation Epoch Simulations (FLARES) VI: The colour evolution of galaxies
Stephen M. Wilkins, Aswin P. Vijayan, Christopher C. Lovell +6
With its exquisite sensitivity, wavelength coverage, and spatial and spectral resolution, the James Webb Space Telescope is poised to revolutionise our view of the distant, high-re…
The BlueTides Mock Image Catalogue: Simulated observations of high-redshift galaxies and predictions for JWST imaging surveys
Madeline A. Marshall, Katelyn Watts, Stephen Wilkins +7
We present a mock image catalogue of ~100,000 MUV=-22.5 to -19.6 mag galaxies at z=7-12 from the BlueTides cosmological simulation. We create mock images of each galaxy with the Ja…
First Light And Reionisation Epoch Simulations (FLARES) V: The redshift frontier
Stephen M. Wilkins, Aswin P. Vijayan, Christopher C. Lovell +7
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is set to transform many areas of astronomy, one of the most exciting is the expansion of the redshift frontier to . In its first year a…
COWS all tHE way Down (COWSHED) I: Could cow based planetoids support methane atmospheres?
William J. Roper, Todd L. Cook, Violetta Korbina +5
More often than not a lunch time conversation will veer off into bizarre and uncharted territories. In rare instances these frontiers of conversation can lead to deep insights abou…
First Light And Reionisation Epoch Simulations (FLARES) IV: The size evolution of galaxies at
William J. Roper, Christopher C. Lovell, Aswin P. Vijayan +5
We present the intrinsic and observed sizes of galaxies at in the First Light And Reionisation Epoch Simulations (FLARES). We employ the large effective volume of FLARES t…
First Light And Reionisation Epoch Simulations (FLARES) III: The properties of massive dusty galaxies at cosmic dawn
Aswin P. Vijayan, Stephen M. Wilkins, Christopher C. Lovell +6
Using the First Light And Reionisation Epoch Simulations (\textsc{Flares}) we explore the dust driven properties of massive high-redshift galaxies at . By post-processi…
First Light And Reionisation Epoch Simulations (FLARES) II: The Photometric Properties of High-Redshift Galaxies
Aswin P. Vijayan, Christopher C. Lovell, Stephen M. Wilkins +5
We present the photometric properties of galaxies in the First Light and Reionisation Epoch Simulations (FLARES). The simulations trace the evolution of galaxies in a range of over…
The host galaxies of z=7 quasars: predictions from the BlueTides simulation
Madeline A. Marshall, Yueying Ni, Tiziana Di Matteo +4
We examine the properties of the host galaxies of quasars using the large volume, cosmological hydrodynamical simulation BlueTides. We find that the 10 most massive black hol…
Nebular Line Emission During the Epoch of Reionization
Stephen M. Wilkins, Christopher C. Lovell, Ciaran Fairhurst +6
Nebular emission lines associated with galactic HII regions carry information about both physical properties of the ionised gas and the source of ionising photons as well as provid…
