Getting Ready to Descend the Slippery Slope of Multi-Messenger Cosmological Black Holes Data

Sesto, Italy -- 10-14 February 2025

Science program website || Talk slides

Monday

Rosa Valiante: Chasing the first BHs with Electromagnetic and Gravitational Waves

  • (Trinca+ 2024) When they allow super-Eddington growth, their luminosity function (LF) matches better with little red dots (LRDs), which are probably a transient feature of galaxies whose SMBHs are rapidly accreting

Small galaxies, big questions conference notes - Durham 2024

Small galaxies, big questions II

Durham University, 29 July - 02 August 2024

Monday

Danieli: Dwarf galaxies the Local Group review

  • (Smith+ 2024) Smallest dwarf galaxy (UMa / UNIONS 1): 16 Msun!
  • (Simon 2019) Dwarfs are low surface brightness (> 27 mag/arcsec^2 in V-band). Distinguishes them from GCs.
  • Recent Examples: Tanoglidis+ (2021, DES), Danieli+ (2017, 2020a, Dragonfly), Greco+ (2018, HSC-SSP)

SMS Formation Workshop Notes

SMS Workshop

Geneva Observatory, 10-12 Jan 2024

Bromm: Formation of Supermassive Objects in the Early Universe

  • (Pandya+ 2023) JWST CEERS "cigar" shaped high-z galaxies. Is the filamentary shape a signature of FDM or just expected high-z galaxy morphology (interacting, disks, etc)?

Glover: The Pop III IMF

  • Kimura+ (2021): stellar versus disk growth in simulations -> more mass in the disk after some time -> disk fragmentation
