The H2 Glow of a Quiescent Molecular Cloud Observed with JWST

Kavli Affiliate: Lile Wang | First 5 Authors: Paul F. Goldsmith, Shengzhe Wang, Xin Wang, Raphael Skalidis, Gary A. Fuller | Summary: We report JWST MIRI/MRS observations of the H2 S(1) 17.04 micron transition in two regions in the boundary of the Taurus Molecular Cloud. The two regions, denoted Edge (near the relatively sharp boundary […]

A forest of gravitational waves in our Galactic Centre

Kavli Affiliate: Pau Amaro Seoane | First 5 Authors: Pau Amaro Seoane, Shao-Dong Zhao, , , | Summary: At the Galactic Centre, we can expect a population of a few tens of early extreme-mass ratio inspirals (E-EMRIs) and extremely large mass ratio inspirals (XMRIs). Depending on their evolutionary stage, they can be highly eccentric, with […]

On the Properties of Cosmological Ionization Fronts

Kavli Affiliate: Nickolay Y. Gnedin | First 5 Authors: Hanjue Zhu, Nickolay Y. Gnedin, , , | Summary: We investigate the properties of cosmological ionization fronts during the Epoch of Reionization using the CROC simulations. By analyzing reionization timing maps, we characterize ionization front velocities and curvatures and their dependence on the density structure of […]

Constraining Population III stellar demographics with next-generation gravitational-wave observatories

Kavli Affiliate: Salvatore Vitale | First 5 Authors: Cailin Plunkett, Matthew Mould, Salvatore Vitale, , | Summary: Next-generation gravitational-wave observatories will reach farther into the universe than currently possible, revealing black-hole mergers from early stellar binary systems such as Population III stars, whose properties are currently poorly constrained. We develop a method to infer the […]

The MandelZoom project I: modelling black hole accretion through an $α$-disc in dwarf galaxies with a resolved interstellar medium

Kavli Affiliate: Debora Sijacki | First 5 Authors: Eun-jin Shin, Debora Sijacki, Matthew C. Smith, Martin A. Bourne, Sophie Koudmani | Summary: While mounting observational evidence suggests that intermediate mass black holes (IMBHs) may be important in shaping the properties of dwarf galaxies both at high redshifts and in the local Universe, our theoretical understanding […]
