AGN feedback in merging galaxies with a SMUGGLE multiphase ISM

Aneesh Sivasankaran, Laura Blecha, Paul Torrey +6

We study fast nuclear winds driven by Active Galactic Nucleus (AGN) feedback in merging galaxies using high-resolution hydrodynamics simulations. We use Stars and MUltiphase Gas in…

Heavy seeds and the first black holes: Insights from the BRAHMA simulations

Aklant K. Bhowmick, Laura Blecha, Paul Torrey +9

From the luminous quasars at to the recent AGNs revealed by JWST, observations of the earliest black hole (BH) populations can provide unique constraints o…

Dynamics of low-mass black hole seeds in the BRAHMA simulations using subgrid-dynamical friction: Impact on merger-driven black hole growth in the high redshift Universe

Aklant K. Bhowmick, Laura Blecha, Luke Z. Kelley +7

We analyze the dynamics of low-mass black hole (BH) seeds in the high-redshift () Universe using a suite of and BRAHMA cosmol…

Mergers and Recoil in Triple Massive Black Hole Systems from Illustris

Pranav Satheesh, Laura Blecha, Luke Zoltan Kelley

Massive black hole binaries (MBHBs) form through galaxy mergers and are among the loudest sources of gravitational waves (GWs) in the universe. If the binary inspiral time is long,…

The Gravitational Wave Background from Massive Black Holes in the ASTRID Simulation

Nianyi Chen, Tiziana Di Matteo, Yihao Zhou +6

Recent pulsar timing array (PTA) observations have detected nanohertz gravitational waves, likely originating from massive black hole binaries (MBHBs). The detected amplitude is un…

Central Cluster Galaxies: A Hotspot for Detectable Gravitational Waves from Black Hole Mergers

Yihao Zhou, Tiziana Di Matteo, Nianyi Chen +6

After Pulsar Timing Arrays (PTAs) have announced the evidence for a low-frequency gravitational wave background (GWB), the continuous waves (CWs) are the next anticipated gravitati…
