Emission line formation in scattering dominated media: implications for LRDs
Elisha Modelevsky, Omri Nitzan, Re'em Sari +1
Recent JWST observations of ``Little Red Dots'' (LRDs) reveal broad and prominent Balmer emission lines. We present a theoretical framework for intrinsic emission line formation an…
The Balmer Break and Optical Continuum of Little Red Dots from Super-Eddington Accretion
Hanpu Liu, Yan-Fei Jiang, Eliot Quataert +2
The physical origin of Little Red Dots (LRDs)--compact extragalactic sources with red rest-optical continua and broad Balmer lines--remains elusive. The redness of LRDs is likely i…
Second public data release of the FIRE-2 cosmological zoom-in simulations of galaxy formation
Andrew Wetzel, Jenna Samuel, Pratik J. Gandhi +34
We describe the second data release (DR2) of the FIRE-2 cosmological zoom-in simulations of galaxy formation, from the Feedback In Realistic Environments (FIRE) project, available…
The Type Ia Supernova and Asymptotic Giant Branch Stellar Ejecta-regulated Interstellar Medium of Massive Galaxies
Rajsekhar Mohapatra, Eliot Quataert, Drummond Fielding +1
Observations and theory suggest that Type Ia supernovae (SNIa) heating and mass loss from asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars play a crucial role in the interstellar medium (ISM) o…
