A Practical Guide to the Massive Black Hole Cosmic History

open access: yesAdvances in Astronomy, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
I review our current understanding of massive black hole (MBH) formation and evolution along the cosmic history. After a brief introductory overview of the relevance of MBHs in the hierarchical structure formation paradigm, I discuss the main viable channels for seed BH formation at high redshift and for their subsequent mass growth and spin evolution.

Does the HCN/CO Ratio Trace the Star-forming Fraction of Gas? I. A Comparison with Analytical Models of Star Formation

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We use archival ALMA observations of the HCN and CO J = 1–0 transitions, in addition to the radio continuum at 93 GHz, to assess the relation between dense gas, star formation, and gas dynamics in 10 nearby (ultra)luminous IR galaxies (U)LIRGs and late ...

The differential magnification of high-redshift ultraluminous infrared galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
A class of extremely luminous high-redshift galaxies has recently been detected in unbiased submillimetre-wave surveys using the Submillimetre Common-User Bolometer Array (SCUBA) camera at the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope.

ISO Spectroscopy of Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies

open access: yesAstrophysics and Space Science, 1999
Spectroscopy from the Infrared Space Observatory ISO has for the first timeprovided the sensitivity to exploit the diagnostic power ofmid-infrared fine structure lines and PAH features for the study ofultraluminous infrared galaxies (LIR >1012 L ⊙). We report on observations obtainedwith SWS, ISOPHOT-S, and the CVF option of ISOCAM.

Star Formation History of Dwarf Galaxies in Cosmological Hydrodynamic Simulations

open access: yesAdvances in Astronomy, Volume 2010, Issue 1, 2010., 2010
We examine the past and current work on the star formation (SF) histories of dwarf galaxies in cosmological hydrodynamic simulations. The results obtained from different numerical methods are still somewhat mixed, but the differences are understandable if we consider the numerical and resolution effects.

Hidden Giants in JWST's PEARLS: An Ultramassive z = 4.26 Submillimeter Galaxy that Is Invisible to HST

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present a multiwavelength analysis using the Submillimeter Array (SMA), James Clerk Maxwell Telescope, NOEMA, JWST, the Hubble Space Telescope (HST), and the Spitzer Space Telescope of two dusty strongly star-forming galaxies, 850.1 and 850.2, seen ...

Dense Molecular Gas Properties of the Central Kiloparsec of Nearby Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies Constrained by ALMA Three Transition-line Observations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We report the results of Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) 1–2 kpc resolution, three rotational transition-line ( J = 2–1, J = 3–2, and J = 4–3) observations of multiple dense molecular gas tracers (HCN, HCO ^+ , and HNC) for 10 nearby (

ALMA 0.5 kpc Resolution Spatially Resolved Investigations of Nuclear Dense Molecular Gas Properties in Nearby Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies Based on HCN and HCO+ Three Transition Line Data

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present the results of our ALMA ≲0.5 kpc resolution dense molecular line (HCN and HCO ^+ J = 2–1, J = 3–2, and J = 4–3) observations of 12 nearby (ultra)luminous infrared galaxies ([U]LIRGs). After matching beam sizes of all molecular line data to the
