HI discs of L galaxies as probes of the baryonic physics of galaxy evolution
Jindra Gensior, Robert Feldmann, Marta Reina-Campos +7
Understanding what shapes the cold gas component of galaxies, which both provides the fuel for star formation and is strongly affected by the subsequent stellar feedback, is a cruc…
Growing massive black holes through super-critical accretion of stellar-mass seeds
A. Lupi, F. Haardt, M. Dotti +3
The rapid assembly of the massive black holes that power the luminous quasars observed at remains a puzzle. Various direct collapse models have been proposed to head-s…
The Argo Simulation: II. The Early Build-up of the Hubble Sequence
Davide Fiacconi, Robert Feldmann, Lucio Mayer
The Hubble sequence is a common classification scheme for the structure of galaxies. Despite the tremendous usefulness of this diagnostic, we still do not fully understand when, wh…
Stellar Ages through the Corners of the Boxy Bulge
E. Valenti, M. Zoccali, A. Renzini +5
In some scenarios for the formation of the Milky Way bulge the stellar population at the edges of the boxy bulge may be younger than those on the minor axis, or close to the Galact…
In situ formation of SgrA* stars via disk fragmentation: parent cloud properties and thermodynamics
M. Mapelli, T. Hayfield, L. Mayer +1
The formation of the massive young stars surrounding SgrA* is still an open question. In this paper, we simulate the infall of a turbulent molecular cloud towards the Galactic Cent…
Massive black hole binary evolution in gas-rich mergers
M. Colpi, S. Callegari, M. Dotti +1
We report on key studies on the dynamics of black holes (BHs) in gas-rich galaxy mergers that underscore the vital role played by gas dissipation in promoting BH inspiral down to t…
