The assembly history of NGC 1365 through chemical archaeology

Lisa J. Kewley, Kathryn Grasha, Alex Garcia +8

Galaxies build through infalling gas and galaxy mergers. Tracking the dynamical history of a galaxy from a single snapshot in time is notoriously difficult. We show that the dynami…

The abundance and emission of PAHs from the local to early Universe

Massimiliano Parente, Desika Narayanan, Paul Torrey +8

We present the first large-volume cosmological simulation of galaxy evolution with a model for the abundance and luminous emission of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) across…

The lifetimes and properties of Little Red Dots in the AMBRA simulation

Patrick LaChance, Yihao Zhou, Aklant Kumar Bhowmick +6

We identify and analyze the little red dots (LRDs) in the AMBRA cosmological hydrodynamic simulation, by producing mock observations of the galaxies and active galactic nuclei (AGN…

The Mass Dependence of the Fundamental Metallicity Relation in Observations and Simulations

Laura Carnevale, Alex M. Garcia, Paul Torrey +8

The metal content of galaxies provides direct insight into the underlying physical processes that drive galaxy evolution. An example of this is the three-parameter relationship bet…

Supermassive Black Hole Assembly from Heavy Seeds with Dynamical Friction in the BRAHMA Simulations: Implications for JWST, LISA, and the Local Universe

Aklant K. Bhowmick, Laura Blecha, Paul Torrey +8

The JWST discoveries of supermassive black holes (BHs) at may provide key insights into their seeding origins. Using new BRAHMA cosmological sim…

First results of AMBRA: Abundant Seeds and Early Mergers as a Pathway to the First Massive Black Holes

Yihao Zhou, Aklant Kumar Bhowmick, Tiziana Di Matteo +6

AMBRA combines the large cosmological volume and statistical power of ASTRID with the physically motivated gas-based black hole seeding models from BRAHMA. Motivated by JWST's disc…

How Mergers and Flybys Shape Azimuthal Age Patterns in Spiral Galaxies

Qian-Hui Chen, Alex M. Garcia, Zefeng Li +7

Spiral structures are one of the most common features in galaxies, yet their origins and evolution remain debated. Stellar age distributions offer crucial insights into galaxy evol…

The AURORA Survey: The Mass -- Metallicity and Fundamental Metallicity Relations at Based Purely on Direct Metallicities

Ali Ahmad Khostovan, Ryan L. Sanders, Alice E. Shapley +14

We present new constraints on the Mass -- Metallicity (MZR) and Fundamental Metallicity Relations (FMR) using a sample of 34 galaxies at (median ). The…

The abundance and properties of the lowest luminosity dwarf galaxies around the Milky Way: Insights from Semi-Analytic Models

Niusha Ahvazi, Andrew B. Pace, Christopher T. Garling +11

We investigate the formation and observable properties of faint satellite galaxies (M$_\rm V > -3$) in Milky Way-like halos using the semi-analytic galaxy formation model Galacticu…

Dust Survival in Galactic Winds

Helena M. Richie, Evan E. Schneider, Matthew W. Abruzzo +1

We present a suite of high-resolution numerical simulations to study the evolution and survival of dust in hot galactic winds. We implement a novel dust framework in the Cholla hyd…
