Magnetic fields in extreme primordial halos: turbulent collapse and implications for early quasar formation

V. B. Díaz, D. R. G. Schleicher, M. A. Latif +1

It is sometimes suggested that the most massive quasars at high redshift may have formed from rare high-sigma peaks in the cosmic density field. We explore here the evolution in a…

Magnetic field amplification in massive primordial halos: Influence of Lyman-Werner radiation

V. B. Díaz, D. R. G. Schleicher, M. A. Latif +2

The potential importance of magnetic fields during structure formation and gravitational collapse in the early Universe has been shown in several studies. In particular, magnetic f…

Origin of supermassive black holes in massive metal-poor protoclusters

D. R. G. Schleicher, B. Reinoso, M. Latif +6

While large numbers of supermassive black holes have been detected at z>6, their origin is still essentially unclear. Numerical simulations have shown that the conditions for the c…

Formation of massive black holes via collisions and accretion

D. R. G. Schleicher, M. A. Fellhauer, T. Boekholt +13

To explain the observed population of supermassive black holes at z~7, very massive seed black holes or, alternatively, super-Eddington scenarios are needed to reach final masses o…

Impact of radiation backgrounds on the formation of massive black holes

V. B. Díaz, D. R. G. Schleicher, S. Bovino +4

The presence of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) of a few billion solar masses at very high redshift has motivated us to study how these massive objects formed during the first bil…

Star formation at high redshift

P. Fibla, S. Bovino, R. Riaz +4

We present here a three-dimesional hydrodynamical simulation for star formation. Our aim is to explore the effect of the metal-line cooling on the thermodynamics of the star-format…
