Ultra-diffuse galaxies in the EAGLE simulation

Haonan Zheng, Shihong Liao, Liang Gao, Fangzhou Jiang, | Summary: [[{“value”:”We use the highest-resolution EAGLE simulation, Recal-L025N0752, to study the properties and formation of ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs). We identify 181 UDGs and find their properties closely match observations. The total masses of EAGLE UDGs range from ${sim}5times 10^{8}~M_{odot}$ to ${sim}2times 10^{11}~M_{odot}$, indicating that they are […]

Detecting Intermediate-mass Black Holes Using Quasar Microlensing

Kavli Affiliate: Luis C. Ho | First 5 Authors: Zihao Wu, Luis C. Ho, , , | Summary: Recent studies suggest that numerous intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs) may wander undetected across the Universe, emitting little radiation. These IMBHs largely preserve their birth masses, offering critical insights into the formation of heavy black hole seeds and […]

The “Little Dark Dot”: Evidence for Self-Interacting Dark Matter in the Strong Lens SDSSJ0946+1006?

Shubo Li, Ran Li, Kaihao Wang, Zixiang Jia, Xiaoyue Cao | Summary: [[{“value”:”Previous studies, based on precise modeling of a gravitationally lensing image, have identified what may be a extremely compact, dark perturber in the well-known lensing system SDSSJ0946+1006 (the "Jackpot"). Its remarkable compactness challenges the standard cold dark matter (CDM) paradigm. In this paper, […]

Massive Black Hole Seed Formation in Strong X-ray Environments at High Redshift

Kavli Affiliate: Kohei Inayoshi | First 5 Authors: Kazutaka Kimura, Kohei Inayoshi, Kazuyuki Omukai, , | Summary: Direct collapse of pristine gas in early galaxies is a promissing pathway for forming supermassive black holes (BHs) powering active galactic nuclei (AGNs) at the epoch of reionization (EoR). This seeding mechanism requires suppression of molecular hydrogen (H$_2$) […]
