Baryon impact on weak lensing peaks and power spectrum: low-bias statistics and self-calibration in future surveys
Xiuyuan Yang, Jan M. Kratochvil, Kevin Huffenberger +2
Peaks in two-dimensional weak lensing (WL) maps contain significant cosmological information, complementary to the WL power spectrum. This has recently been demonstrated using N-bo…
Accretion into the Central Cavity of a Circumbinary Disk
Daniel J. D'Orazio, Zoltán Haiman, Andrew MacFadyen
A near-equal mass binary black hole can clear a central cavity in a circumbinary accretion disk; however, previous works have revealed accretion streams entering this cavity. Here…
Feedback from the IR Background in the Early Universe
Jemma Wolcott-Green, Zoltán Haiman
It is commonly believed that the earliest stages of star-formation in the Universe were self-regulated by global radiation backgrounds - either by the ultraviolet Lyman-Werner (LW)…
X-ray emission from high-redshift miniquasars: self-regulating the population of massive black holes through global warming
Takamitsu Tanaka, Rosalba Perna, Zoltán Haiman
Observations of high-redshift quasars at z>6 imply that supermassive black holes (SMBHs) with masses over a billion solar masses were in place less than 1 Gyr after the Big Bang. I…
Gas pile-up, gap overflow, and Type 1.5 migration in circumbinary disks: application to supermassive black hole binaries
Bence Kocsis, Zoltan Haiman, Abraham Loeb
We study the interaction of a supermassive black hole (SMBH) binary and a standard radiatively efficient thin accretion disk. We examine steady-state configurations of the disk and…
Gas pile-up, gap overflow, and Type 1.5 migration in circumbinary disks: general theory
Bence Kocsis, Zoltan Haiman, Abraham Loeb
Many astrophysical binaries, from planets to black holes, exert strong torques on their circumbinary accretion disks, and are expected to significantly modify the disk structure. D…
