Direct Tests of Black Hole Accretion Rate Prescriptions: I. Bondi Accretion at Different Scales
James Agostino, Ming-Yi Lin, Natasha Jones +9
We present spatially resolved parsec-scale measurements of nuclear conditions (gas density and kinetic temperature) relevant for black hole accretion rate predictions in the Seyfer…
A Hot DOG Forged in FIRE: Nuclear and Starburst Spectral Decomposition of a Luminous Infrared Galaxy Simulation with a Resolved Dust Torus
Jaeden Bardati, Philip F. Hopkins, Claude-André Faucher-Giguère
Ultraluminous infrared galaxies are powered by a combination of rapid star formation and active galactic nucleus (AGN) emission, but their relative importance is not always observa…
Early Stages of Dusty Tori: The First Infrared Spectra from a Highly Multiscale Quasar Simulation
Jaeden Bardati, Philip F. Hopkins, Gordon T. Richards
We present the first infrared spectral predictions from a self-consistent simulation of the formation of a quasar in a starburst galaxy, spanning the cosmological environment to sc…
TRINITY VI: Connection between Galaxy Star Formation Rates and Supermassive Black Hole Accretion Rates from z=0-10
Haowen Zhang, Peter Behroozi, Marta Volonteri +6
We infer supermassive black hole (SMBH) accretion rates and Eddington ratios as a function of SMBH/host galaxy mass and redshift with the empirical TRINITY model of dark matter hal…
Modeling Cosmic Rays at AGN Jet-Driven Shock Fronts
Kung-Yi Su, Greg L. Bryan, Philip F. Hopkins +4
Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) feedback is a key physical mechanism proposed to regulate star formation, primarily in massive galaxies. In particular, cosmic rays associated with AGN…
