Little Red Dots show soft ionizing spectra consistent with massive stars, based on high H-alpha EWs and low HeII/H-beta ratios that rule out hard AGN spectra via Cloudy modeling.
Fe Kα lines from accreting black holes are produced mostly outside 10 gravitational radii due to radial ionization gradients, allowing broad profiles without high spin.
FIRE-2 simulations with gravitational torque-driven and free-fall accretion models predict enough high-redshift AGN to explain little red dots, with a super-Eddington Eddington-limited scenario for M_BH >= 2e5 Msun in M_star >= 2e7 Msun galaxies reproducing key observations.
Radiative cooling in MADs above a transition accretion rate creates thinner denser filaments with increased efficiency, rendering conventional scale height measures misleading and motivating a new definition based on the polar position of the density maximum.
