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…

The role of galactic winds fueling central starbursts and quasars in the FIRE cosmological simulations
Jonathan Mercedes-Feliz, Daniel Anglés-Alcázar, Boon Kiat Oh +7
Central starbursts and Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) are thought to be fueled by either galaxy interactions or secular processes in gravitationally unstable discs. We employ cosmolo…

Dense stellar clump formation driven by strong quasar winds in the FIRE cosmological hydrodynamic simulations
Jonathan Mercedes-Feliz, Daniel Anglés-Alcázar, Boon Kiat Oh +9
We investigate the formation of dense stellar clumps in a suite of high-resolution cosmological zoom-in simulations of a massive, star forming galaxy at under the presen…
