Ruling out initially clustered primordial black holes as dark matter
Combining constraints from microlensing and Lyman-α forest, we provide a simple argument
to show that large spatial clustering of stellar-mass primordial black holes at the time of …

Origin of supermassive black holes in massive metal-poor protoclusters
While large numbers of supermassive black holes have been detected at z> 6, their origin is
still essentially unclear. Numerical simulations have shown that the conditions for the …

Bridging the bondi and event horizon scales: 3d grmhd simulations reveal x-shaped radio galaxy morphology
X-shaped radio galaxies (XRGs) produce misaligned X-shaped jet pairs and make up≲ 10%
of radio galaxies. XRGs are thought to emerge in galaxies featuring a binary supermassive …
