SEEDZ: Rapid Galaxy Assembly as a Pathway to Supermassive Stars, Dense Stellar Environments and Massive Black Hole Seeds

Lewis R. Prole, John A. Regan, Daxal Mehta +14

We investigate the assembly history of early galaxies in the SEEDZ hydrodynamic simulations, to investigate the high inflow rates believed to be required for the formation of super…

Black Hole Feedback, Galaxy Quenching and Outflows at Cosmic Dawn: Analysis of the SEEDZ Simulations

Lewis R. Prole, John A. Regan, Daxal Mehta +13

Here we analyse the growth and feedback effects of massive black holes (MBHs) in the SEEDZ simulations. The most massive black holes grow to masses of M by $z=…

The SEEDZ Simulations: Methodology and First Results on Massive Black Hole Seeding and Early Galaxy Growth

Lewis R. Prole, John A. Regan, Daxal Mehta +13

Here we introduce the SEEDZ simulations, a suite of cosmological hydrodynamic simulations exploring the formation and growth of the first massive black holes in the Universe. SEEDZ…

Growth of Light Seed Black Holes in the Early Universe

Daxal H. Mehta, John A. Regan, Lewis Prole

Observations from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) have uncovered supermassive black holes (SMBHs) with masses exceeding at redshifts , posing…

Halo mass functions at high redshift

Hannah O'Brennan, John A. Regan, Chris Power +3

Recent JWST observations of very early galaxies, at , have led to claims that tension exists between the sizes and luminosities of high-redshift galaxies and wha…

Beyond No Tension: JWST z > 10 Galaxies Push Simulations to the Limit

Joe McCaffrey, Samantha Hardin, John H. Wise +1

JWST has identified some of the Universe's earliest galaxies, repeatedly pushing the frontier to ever higher redshifts and stellar masses. The presence of such extreme galaxies at…
