Investigating black hole accretion and feedback self-regulation in Seyfert galaxies using the FIRE-3 cosmological hydrodynamic simulations
Jonathan Mercedes-Feliz, Daniel Anglés-Alcázar, Jose Cevallos +12
Recent observations of local Seyfert galaxies show an intriguing connection between Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) luminosity and a deficit of molecular gas on ~50pc scales compared…
Little Red Dots on FIRE: Exploring the formation and observational signatures of ultra-compact early galaxies
Niranjan Chandra Roy, Daniel Anglés-Alcázar, Rachel K. Cochrane +15
Little Red Dots (LRDs) are compact sources with broad Balmer lines, Balmer breaks, anomalous UV emission, rising red continuum, and uncertain origin. We use FIRE cosmological simul…
Learning the Universe: The Structure of Dust Attenuation Curves in Galaxy Simulations
Laura Sommovigo, Deaglan J. Bartlett, Rachel K. Cochrane +3
Dust attenuation is a major source of systematic uncertainty in both SED fitting and forward modeling of galaxy populations, yet the functional form used to parameterize attenuatio…
Resolving galaxy formation in the early Universe with BonFIRE and CampFIRE
Jenna Samuel, Michael Boylan-Kolchin, Robert Feldmann +16
The abundance and rapid growth of galaxies at cosmic dawn revealed by the James Webb Space Telescope challenges models of galaxy formation, motivating new simulations to uncover th…
Angular correlation functions of bright Lyman-break galaxies at
Isabelle Ye, Philip Bull, Rebecca A. A. Bowler +3
We investigate the clustering of Lyman-break galaxies at redshifts of 3 5 within the COSMOS field by measuring the angular two-point correlation function. Our…
Molecular Hydrogen in High-redshift Damped Lyman-α Absorbers
Alon Gurman, Amiel Sternberg, Shmuel Bialy +2
Simulations predict that circumgalactic hydrogen gas surrounding massive () galaxies at may be predominantly neutral, and c…
