Rates of tidal disruption events from constrained cosmological simulations of the local Universe: population properties and implications for transient surveys
Julian S. Sommer, Ildar Khabibullin, Klaus Dolag +4
(abridged) Motivated by upcoming surveys like LSST, we estimate tidal disruption event (TDE) rates using the constrained cosmological Simulation of the LOcal Web (SLOW) to test the…

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…

Supermassive black hole spin evolution in cosmological simulations with OpenGadget3
Luca Sala, Milena Valentini, Veronica Biffi +1
Mass and spin of massive black holes (BHs) at the centre of galaxies evolve due to gas accretion and mergers with other BHs. Besides affecting e.g. the evolution of relativistic je…
