The formation of the first stars and quasars marks the transformation of the universe from its
smooth initial state to its clumpy current state. In popular cosmological models, the first …

The co-evolution between supermassive black holes and their environment is most directly
traced by the hot atmospheres of dark matter halos. The cooling of the hot atmosphere …

We present results from 13 cosmological simulations that explore the parameter space of the
'Evolution and Assembly of GaLaxies and their Environments'(EAGLE) simulation project …

The most successful cosmological models to date envision structure formation as a
hierarchical process in which gravity is constantly drawing lumps of matter together to form …

The minimum mass that a virialized gas cloud must have in order to be able to cool in a
Hubble time is computed, using a detailed treatment of the chemistry of molecular hydrogen …

We present simulations of the formation and evolution of galaxy clusters in the cold dark
matter cosmogony. Clusters with a wide range of mass were selected from previous N-body …

We present an analysis of the growth of black holes through accretion and bulges through
star formation in 33 galaxies at the centers of cooling flows. Most of these systems show …

We present an analytic model for how momentum deposition from stellar feedback
simultaneously regulates star formation and drives outflows in a turbulent interstellar …

Photoionization by the high-redshift ultraviolet radiation background heats low density gas
before it falls into dark matter potential wells, and it eliminates the neutral hydrogen and …
