High-redshift AGN population in radiation-hydrodynamics simulations

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Teodora-Elena Bulichi, Teodora-Elena Bulichi, , , | Summary: High-redshift active galactic nuclei (AGN) have long been recognized as key probes of early black hole growth and galaxy evolution. However, modeling this population remains difficult due to the wide range of luminosities and black hole masses involved, and […]
