Hierarchical Black Hole Mergers at High Redshift: Predictions for LISA and LGWA from SEEDZ

Daxal H. Mehta, Lewis R. Prole, John A. Regan +13

We investigate the hierarchical assembly of black holes (BHs) in the early Universe using the next-generation SEEDZ cosmological zoom-in simulations. Our suite follows two independ…

SEEDZ: Rapid Galaxy Assembly as a Pathway to Supermassive Stars, Dense Stellar Environments and Massive Black Hole Seeds

Lewis R. Prole, John A. Regan, Daxal Mehta +14

We investigate the assembly history of early galaxies in the SEEDZ hydrodynamic simulations, to investigate the high inflow rates believed to be required for the formation of super…

Black Hole Feedback, Galaxy Quenching and Outflows at Cosmic Dawn: Analysis of the SEEDZ Simulations

Lewis R. Prole, John A. Regan, Daxal Mehta +13

Here we analyse the growth and feedback effects of massive black holes (MBHs) in the SEEDZ simulations. The most massive black holes grow to masses of M by $z=…

Growth of Light Seed Black Holes in the Early Universe

Daxal H. Mehta, John A. Regan, Lewis Prole

Observations from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) have uncovered supermassive black holes (SMBHs) with masses exceeding at redshifts , posing…

The SEEDZ Simulations: Methodology and First Results on Massive Black Hole Seeding and Early Galaxy Growth

Lewis R. Prole, John A. Regan, Daxal Mehta +13

Here we introduce the SEEDZ simulations, a suite of cosmological hydrodynamic simulations exploring the formation and growth of the first massive black holes in the Universe. SEEDZ…

Primordial black holes in cosmological simulations: growth prospects for supermassive black holes

Lewis R. Prole, John A. Regan, Daxal Mehta +2

It has long been suggested that a fraction of the dark matter in the Universe could exist in the form of primordial black holes (PBHs) that have existed since the radiation dominat…

Growth of Light-Seed Black Holes in Gas-Rich Galaxies at High Redshift

Daxal Mehta, John A. Regan, Lewis Prole

Recent observations by the James Webb Space Telescope confirm the existence of massive black holes ( ) beyond the redshift of . However, their formatio…
