The AGORA High-resolution Galaxy Simulations Comparison Project. IX - Part 2: Effects of a Major Galaxy Merger on the Stellar Morphology of a Milky Way-mass Galaxy Progenitor
Thinh Huu Nguyen, Kirk S. S. Barrow, Minyong Jung +23
Galaxy mergers, with their high sensitivity to initial conditions, provide a valuable setting for comparative studies of galaxy simulation codes. Following our first paper focusing…
The AGORA High-resolution Galaxy Simulations Comparison Project. IX - Part 1: Effects of a Major Galaxy Merger on Star Formation of a Milky Way-mass Galaxy Progenitor
Thinh Huu Nguyen, Kirk S. S. Barrow, Minyong Jung +23
Given their highly nonlinear dynamics and sensitivity to initial conditions, galaxy mergers are a compelling area to conduct a simulation code comparison. We perform a comparative…
Pebbles to Gems: Intermediate-mass black holes in the first star clusters
Benedetta Mestichelli, Manuel Arca Sedda, Marta Volonteri +9
The rapid assembly of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) observed at requires efficient seeding mechanisms in the early Universe. Population III (Pop. III) star clusters…
ASPIRE: The Environments and Dark Matter Halos of Luminous Quasars in the Epoch of Reionization
Feige Wang, Jaclyn B. Champagne, Jiamu Huang +42
We present a systematic study of the environments of 25 luminous quasars at from the ASPIRE program. Using JWST/NIRCam WFSS data, we identified 487 galaxies at $5.3 \less…
You can't see me: Super-Eddington growth hindering X-ray detection in high-z broad-line active galactic nuclei
Alessandro Trinca, Alessandro Lupi, Francesco Haardt +1
We revisit black hole mass estimates for high-redshift broad-line active galactic nuclei (AGNs) discovered with JWST by jointly analysing their broad emission lines and their syste…
The AGORA High-resolution Galaxy Simulations Comparison Project. X: Formation and Evolution of Galaxies at the High-redshift Frontier
Hyeonyong Kim, Ji-hoon Kim, Minyong Jung +22
Recent observations from JWST have revealed unexpectedly luminous galaxies, exhibiting stellar masses and luminosities significantly higher than predicted by theoretical models at…
