AGN Feedback Models and AGN Demographics II: Comparing Predictions of Radiative and Total Feedback to Observations
Arjun Suresh, Michael R. Blanton
We evaluate the radiative-mode active galactic nucleus (AGN) feedback models of EAGLE, SIMBA, and TNG100 by comparing their predictions for the AGN-host galaxy relationship to new…

The Eddington Ratio Distribution of Narrow Line Active Galactic Nuclei
Michael R. Blanton, Arjun Suresh, Kyle B. Westfall +2
We measure the Eddington ratio distribution of local optical narrow-line active galactic nuclei (AGN) as a function of host galaxy properties, as a potential test of galaxy formati…

AGN Feedback Models and AGN Demographics I: Radio-Mode AGN in EAGLE, SIMBA and TNG100 are Inconsistent with Observations
Arjun Suresh, Michael R. Blanton, Douglas Rennehan
We compare predictions of how Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) populate host galaxies at low redshifts to observations, finding large discrepancies between cosmological simulation pred…
