Bulge-driven Fueling of Seed Black Holes
KwangHo Park, Massimo Ricotti, Priyamvada Natarajan +2
We examine radiation-regulated accretion onto intermediate-mass and massive black holes (BHs) embedded in a bulge component. Using spherically symmetric one-dimensional radiation-h…
Forming Super-Massive Black Hole Seeds under the Influence of a Nearby Anisotropic Multi-Frequency Source
John Regan, Peter Johansson, John Wise
The photo-dissociation of H by a nearby anisotropic source of radiation is seen as a critical component in creating an environment in which a direct collapse black hole may for…
The First Population II Stars Formed in Externally Enriched Mini-halos
Britton Smith, John Wise, Brian O'Shea +2
We present a simulation of the formation of the earliest Population II stars, starting from cosmological initial conditions and ending when metals created in the first supernovae a…
Probing The Ultraviolet Luminosity Function of the Earliest Galaxies with the Renaissance Simulations
Brian W. O'Shea, John H. Wise, Hao Xu +1
In this paper, we present the first results from the Renaissance Simulations, a suite of extremely high-resolution and physics-rich AMR calculations of high redshift galaxy formati…
The effect of dark matter resolution on the collapse of baryons in high redshift numerical simulations
John A. Regan, Peter H. Johansson, John H. Wise
We examine the impact of dark matter particle resolution on the formation of a baryonic core in high resolution adaptive mesh refinement simulations. We test the effect that both p…
