New Paper: Lyman-alpha trapping in massive BH formation
Last week, Qi Ge and I submitted a new paper (arXiv) on the importance of Lyman-alpha radiation trapping during the initial phases of massive black hole (BH) formation. Here we used a Monte Carlo method to trace photons in a pre-galactic cloud to see how they can suppress cooling that aids the gravitational … Continue Reading ››
