Massive Black Hole Mergers with Orbital Information: Predictions from the ASTRID Simulation

Nianyi Chen, Yueying Ni, A. Miguel Holgado +6

We examine massive black hole (MBH) mergers and their associated gravitational wave signals from the large-volume cosmological simulation Astrid. Astrid includes galaxy formation a…

The ASTRID Simulation: Galaxy Formation and Reionization

Simeon Bird, Yueying Ni, Tiziana Di Matteo +3

We introduce the ASTRID simulation, a large-scale cosmological hydrodynamic simulation in a Mpc/h box with particles. ASTRID contains a large number of high…

The ASTRID simulation: the evolution of Supermassive Black Holes

Yueying Ni, Tiziana Di Matteo, Simeon Bird +6

We present the evolution of black holes (BHs) and their relationship with their host galaxies in Astrid, a large-volume cosmological hydrodynamical simulation with box size 250 $h^…

AMBER: A Semi-numerical Abundance Matching Box for the Epoch of Reionization

Hy Trac, Nianyi Chen, Ian Holst +2

The Abundance Matching Box for the Epoch of Reionization (AMBER) is a semi-numerical code for modeling the cosmic dawn. The new algorithm is not based on the excursion set formalis…

On the detectability of massive black hole merger eventsby LISA

Samuel Banks, Katharine Lee, Nazanin Azimi +5

The launch of space based gravitational wave (GW) detectors (e.g. Laser Interferometry Space Antenna; LISA) and current and upcoming Pulsar Timing Arrays (PTAs) will extend the GW…

Dynamical Friction Modeling of Massive Black Holes in Cosmological Simulations and Effects on Merger Rate Predictions

Nianyi Chen, Yueying Ni, Michael Tremmel +4

In this work we establish and test methods for implementing dynamical friction for massive black hole pairs that form in large volume cosmological hydrodynamical simulations which…
