From Seeds to Supermassive Black Holes: Capture, Growth, Migration, and Pairing in Dense Proto-Bulge Environments
Yanlong Shi, Kyle Kremer, Philip F. Hopkins
The origins and mergers of supermassive black holes (BHs) remain a mystery. We describe a scenario from a novel multi-physics simulation featuring rapid (Myr) hyper-E…
Feedback-regulated Seed Black Hole Growth in Star-Forming Molecular Clouds and Galactic Nuclei
Yanlong Shi, Kyle Kremer, Philip F. Hopkins
The detection of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in high-redshift luminous quasars may require a phase of rapid accretion, and as a precondition, substantial gas influx toward see…
FORGE'd in FIRE III: The IMF in Quasar Accretion Disks from STARFORGE
Philip F. Hopkins, Michael Y. Grudic, Kyle Kremer +3
Recently, we demonstrated self-consistent formation of strongly-magnetized quasar accretion disks (QADs) from cosmological radiation-magnetohydrodynamic-thermochemical galaxy-star…
