Investigating the Growth of Little Red Dot Descendants at z<4 with the JWST
Jean-Baptiste Billand, David Elbaz, Fabrizio Gentile +16
One of JWST's most remarkable discoveries is a population of compact red galaxies known as Little Red Dots (LRDs). Their existence raises many questions about their nature, origin,…
Not all cores are equal: Phase-space origins of dynamical friction, stalling and buoyancy
Shashank Dattathri, Frank C. van den Bosch, Uddipan Banik +4
Dynamical friction governs the orbital decay of massive perturbers within galaxies and dark matter halos, yet its standard Chandrasekhar formulation fails in systems with cores of…
From Feedback-Free Star Clusters to Little Red Dots via Compaction
Avishai Dekel, Dhruba Dutta Chowdhury, Sharon Lapiner +6
We address the origin of the Little Red Dots (LRDs) seen by JWST at cosmic morning () as compact stellar systems with over-massive black holes (BHs). We propose…
The Relationship at : Big Black Holes in Little Red Dots
Brenda L. Jones, Dale D. Kocevski, Fabio Pacucci +25
JWST has identified a large population of faint, broad-line active galactic nuclei (AGN) in the early universe that are powered by black holes (BHs) that often appear overmassive r…
From FFB Starbursts at Cosmic Dawn to Quenching at Cosmic Morning: Hi-z Galaxy Bimodality
Avishai Dekel, Nir Mandelker, Zhaozhou Li +5
We propose a mass-dependent bimodality in the early evolution of galaxies. The massive track connects the super-bright galaxies at cosmic dawn () to the super-massive quiesc…
The AGORA High-resolution Galaxy Simulations Comparison Project. VIII: Disk Formation and Evolution of Simulated Milky Way Mass Galaxy Progenitors at
Minyong Jung, Ji-hoon Kim, Thinh H. Nguyen +24
We investigate how differences in the stellar feedback produce disks with different morphologies in Milky Way-like progenitors over 1 , using eight state-of-the-art…
