The natural emergence of the correlation between H2 and star formation rate surface densities in galaxy simulations

Alessandro Lupi, Stefano Bovino, Pedro R. Capelo +2

In this study, we present a suite of high-resolution numerical simulations of an isolated galaxy to test a sub-grid framework to consistently follow the formation and dissociation…

The effect of non-equilibrium metal cooling on the interstellar medium

Pedro R. Capelo, Stefano Bovino, Alessandro Lupi +2

By using a novel interface between the modern smoothed particle hydrodynamics code GASOLINE2 and the chemistry package KROME, we follow the hydrodynamical and chemical evolution of…

The birth of a supermassive black hole binary

Hugo Pfister, Alessandro Lupi, Pedro R. Capelo +3

We study the dynamical evolution of supermassive black holes, in the late stage of galaxy mergers, from kpc to pc scales. In particular, we capture the formation of the binary, a n…

Growing black holes and galaxies: black hole accretion versus star formation rate

Marta Volonteri, Pedro R. Capelo, Hagai Netzer +3

We present a new suite of hydrodynamical simulations and use it to study, in detail, black hole and galaxy properties. The high time, spatial and mass resolution, and realistic orb…

Black hole accretion versus star formation rate: theory confronts observations

Marta Volonteri, Pedro R. Capelo, Hagai Netzer +3

We use a suite of hydrodynamical simulations of galaxy mergers to compare star formation rate (SFR) and black hole accretion rate (BHAR) for galaxies before the interaction ('stoch…

How robust are the constraints on cosmology and galaxy evolution from the lens-redshift test?

Pedro R. Capelo, Priyamvada Natarajan

The redshift distribution of galaxy lenses in known gravitational lens systems provides a powerful test that can potentially discriminate amongst cosmological models. However, appl…
