The Fundamental Plane of Accretion Onto Black Holes with Dynamical Masses

Kayhan Gultekin, Edward M. Cackett, Jon M. Miller +3

Black hole accretion and jet production are areas of intensive study in astrophysics. Recent work has found a relation between radio luminosity, X-ray luminosity, and black hole ma…

The Role of Galactic Winds on Molecular Gas Emission from Galaxy Mergers

Desika Narayanan, T. J. Cox, Brandon Kelly +7

We assess the impact of starburst and AGN feedback-driven winds on the CO emission from galaxy mergers, and, in particular, search for signatures of these winds in the simulated CO…

The Nature of CO Emission From z~6 Quasars

Desika Narayanan, Yuexing Li, Thomas J. Cox +9

We investigate the nature of CO emission from z~6 quasars by combining non-LTE radiative transfer calculations with merger-driven models of z~6 quasar formation that arise naturall…

Direct cosmological simulations of the growth of black holes and galaxies

Tiziana Di Matteo, Joerg Colberg, Volker Springel +2

We investigate the coupled formation and evolution of galaxies and their embedded supermassive black holes using state-of-the-art hydrodynamic simulations of cosmological structure…

Angular Anisotropies in the Cosmic Gamma-ray Background as a Probe of its Origin

Francesco Miniati, Savvas M. Koushiappas, Tiziana Di Matteo

Notwithstanding the advent of the Gamma-ray Large Area Telescope, theoretical models predict that a significant fraction of the cosmic gamma-ray background (CGB), at the level of 2…

Formation of z ~ 6 quasars from hierarchical galaxy mergers

Yuexing Li, Lars Hernquist, Brant Robertson +8

The discovery of luminous quasars at redshift z ~ 6 indicates the presence of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) of mass ~10^9 Msun when the Universe was less than one billion years…
