Kavli Affiliate: Yingjie Peng | Summary:The connection between morphology and quenching in central galaxies is well established, but its physical origin remains widely debated. We address this by tracing the main progenitor branches of $z=0$ star-forming and quiescent central galaxies in the EAGLE cosmological simulation from $zgtrsim4$. Their disc-to-total ratio and triaxiality tracks are indistinguishable […]

Kavli Affiliate: Xian Chen| Summary: The "Little red dots" (LRDs) are a population of accreting supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in the early Universe which often exhibit undermassive or even undetectable stellar hosts. Their early emergence, high space density, and extremely large black-hole-to-stellar mass ratios pose a serious challenge to conventional seeding scenarios that rely on […]
