Learning the Universe at High Redshifts: Impact of Accretion Modeling on Early Black Hole Growth
Jonathan Kho, Aklant K. Bhowmick, Rainer Weinberger +8
JWST discoveries of the earliest () supermassive black holes (BHs, ) challenge the BH seeding and accretion models of most cosmol…
The DREAMS Project: Disentangling the Impact of Halo-to-Halo Variance and Baryonic Feedback on Milky Way Dark Matter Density Profiles
Alex M. Garcia, Jonah C. Rose, Paul Torrey +23
In this work, we utilize a new suite of Milky Way-mass halos from the DREAMS Project, simulated with Cold Dark Matter (CDM), to quantify the influence of baryon feedback and intrin…
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…
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…
Signatures of BH seeding on the relation: Predictions from the BRAHMA simulations
Jonathan Kho, Aklant K. Bhowmick, Paul Torrey +4
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has identified a large population of supermassive (-) black holes (BHs) in the early universe (-). C…
Signatures of black hole seeding in the local Universe: Predictions from the BRAHMA cosmological simulations
Aklant K Bhowmick, Laura Blecha, Paul Torrey +8
The first "seeds" of supermassive black holes (BHs) continue to be an outstanding puzzle, and it is currently unclear whether the imprints of early seed formation survive today. He…
