AGN feedback in merging galaxies with a SMUGGLE multiphase ISM
Aneesh Sivasankaran, Laura Blecha, Paul Torrey +6
We study fast nuclear winds driven by Active Galactic Nucleus (AGN) feedback in merging galaxies using high-resolution hydrodynamics simulations. We use Stars and MUltiphase Gas in…
Little Red Dots Are Nurseries of Massive Black Holes
Fabio Pacucci, Lars Hernquist, Michiko Fujii
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has revealed a previously unknown population of compact, red galaxies at , known as "Little Red Dots" (LRDs). With effective radii o…
Metallicity Gradients in Modern Cosmological Simulations II: The Role of Bursty Versus Smooth Feedback at High-Redshift
Alex M. Garcia, Paul Torrey, Aniket Bhagwat +22
The distribution of gas-phase metals within galaxies encodes the impact of stellar feedback on galactic evolution. At high-redshift, when galaxies are rapidly assembling, feedback-…
How to Build an Empirical Speed Distribution for Dark Matter in the Solar Neighborhood
Tal Shpigel, Dylan Folsom, Mariangela Lisanti +3
The dark matter flux in a direct detection experiment depends on its local speed distribution. This distribution has been inferred from simulations of Milky Way-like galaxies, but…
Heavy seeds and the first black holes: Insights from the BRAHMA simulations
Aklant K. Bhowmick, Laura Blecha, Paul Torrey +9
From the luminous quasars at to the recent AGNs revealed by JWST, observations of the earliest black hole (BH) populations can provide unique constraints o…
The Cosmic Rush Hour: Rapid Formation of Bright, Massive, Disky, Star-Forming Galaxies as Signatures of Early-Universe Physics
Xuejian Shen, Oliver Zier, Mark Vogelsberger +4
Early JWST observations have revealed a high-redshift universe more vibrant than predicted by canonical galaxy-formation models within CDM, showing an excess of ultraviolet(UV)-…
