Emulating the complex galactic-scale orbital dynamics of LISA massive black hole pairs with normalizing flows
Pedro R. Capelo, Carlos Moreno Martinez, Nodens Koren +6
Massive black hole (MBH) pairs, formed in galaxy mergers, may coalesce in a burst of gravitational waves. Estimating the coalescence time-scales and rates is a long-standing astrop…
Too shy to spin? Cosmic wallflowers as proto-globular clusters
Floor van Donkelaar, Lucio Mayer, Pedro R. Capelo
We investigate the rotational properties of star-forming clusters at in the high-resolution simulation MassiveBlackPS, focusing on two formation channels: clusters for…
The role of major mergers in triggering super-Eddington accretion
Riccardo Caleno, Tommaso Zana, Raffaella Schneider +6
JWST observations have opened a new era in the exploration of the high-redshift Universe, revealing black holes (BHs) with masses of several million solar masses already at ,…
Cosmic wallflowers: the circumgalactic origins of isolated ultra-compact star clusters at
Floor van Donkelaar, Lucio Mayer, Pedro R. Capelo +2
The discovery of gravitationally lensed stellar clusters at high redshift with the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has revealed extremely compact, massive star-forming systems in…
The AGORA High-resolution Galaxy Simulations Comparison Project. X: Formation and Evolution of Galaxies at the High-redshift Frontier
Hyeonyong Kim, Ji-hoon Kim, Minyong Jung +22
Recent observations from JWST have revealed unexpectedly luminous galaxies, exhibiting stellar masses and luminosities significantly higher than predicted by theoretical models at…
Super-Eddington accretion in protogalactic cores
Tommaso Zana, Pedro R. Capelo, Mairo Boresta +6
The presence of massive black holes (BHs) exceeding already at redshift challenges standard models of BH growth. Super-Eddington (SE) accretion has…
Introducing the Phoebos simulation: galaxy properties at the dawn of galaxy formation
Floor van Donkelaar, Pedro R. Capelo, Lucio Mayer +2
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) now allows us to observe galaxies at the end of cosmic dawn () with unprecedented detail, revealing their morphologies, sizes, a…
The AGORA High-resolution Galaxy Simulations Comparison Project. VIII: Disk Formation and Evolution of Simulated Milky Way Mass Galaxy Progenitors at
Minyong Jung, Ji-hoon Kim, Thinh H. Nguyen +24
We investigate how differences in the stellar feedback produce disks with different morphologies in Milky Way-like progenitors over 1 , using eight state-of-the-art…
A novel sub-grid model for super-Eddington accretion of spinning black holes in galaxy-scale simulations
Wei-Bo Kao, Pedro R. Capelo, Elia Cenci +3
Super-Eddington accretion has been proposed to explain the existence of black holes (BHs) with masses exceeding a billion solar masses within the first billion years after the Big…
Dust and gas modelling in radiative transfer simulations of disc-dominated galaxies with RADMC-3D
Francesco Sinigaglia, Miroslava Dessauges-Zavadsky, Lucio Mayer +2
Bridging theory and observations is a key task to understand galaxy formation and evolution. With the advent of state-of-the-art observational facilities, an accurate modelling of…
In-situ formation of star clusters at z > 7 via galactic disk fragmentation; shedding light on ultra-compact clusters and overmassive black holes seen by JWST
Lucio Mayer, Floor van Donkelaar, Matteo Messa +2
We investigate the nature of star formation in gas-rich galaxies at forming in a markedly overdense region, in the whereabouts of a massive virialized halo already exceedin…
Gravitational Wave Astronomy With TianQin
En-Kun Li, Shuai Liu, Alejandro Torres-Orjuela +50
The opening of the gravitational wave window has significantly enhanced our capacity to explore the universe's most extreme and dynamic sector. In the mHz frequency range, a divers…
Exploring the fate of primordial discs in Milky Way-sized galaxies with the GigaEris simulation
Floor van Donkelaar, Lucio Mayer, Pedro R. Capelo +1
Recent observations with JWST and ALMA have unveiled galaxies with regular discs at significantly higher redshifts than previously expected. This appears to be in contrast with con…
Wandering intermediate-mass black holes in Milky Way-mass galaxies in cosmological simulations: myth or reality?
Floor van Donkelaar, Lucio Mayer, Pedro R. Capelo +1
In this work, we address the following question: ``can we use the current cosmological simulations to identify intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs) and quantify a putative populat…
