Three-dimensional Conditional Diffusion Models for Cosmological 21 cm Lightcone Emulation

Bin Xia, John H. Wise

We investigate conditional diffusion modeling for three-dimensional 21 cm lightcone emulation, focusing on cubes with a sky-plane size of and a line-of-sight depth up…

Identification of Candidate Halos Hosting Massive Black Hole Seeds in the Simulations with Support Vector Machines

Brandon Pries, John H. Wise

The nature of the origins of supermassive black holes remains uncertain. Multiple possible seeding pathways have been proposed across a variety of mass scales, each with their own…

Aeos: The Impact of Population III Initial Mass Function and Star-by-Star Models in Galaxy Simulations

Kaley Brauer, Jennifer Mead, John H. Wise +7

We explore the effect of variations in the Population III (Pop III) initial mass function (IMF) and star-by-star feedback on early galaxy formation and evolution using the Aeos sim…

From Primordial Stars to Early Galaxies: A Semi-Analytic Model Calibrated with Aeos and Renaissance

Ryan Hazlett, Jennifer Mead, Eli Visbal +6

We present an extension of our semi-analytic model that follows the formation of Population III stars and their metal-enriched descendants, incorporating dark matter halo merger tr…

Multi-modal Foundation Model for Cosmological Simulation Data

Bin Xia, Nesar Ramachandra, Azton I. Wells +2

We present a multi-modal foundation model for astrophysical galaxy data, designed to map between simulation- and observation-based galactic features. Our encoder-only transformer f…
