Modelling the uv/x-ray cosmic background with CUBA
read the original abstract
In this paper, I will describe the features of the numerical code CUBA, aimed at the solution of the radiative transfer equation in a cosmological context. CUBA will be soon available for public use at the URL http://pitto.mib.infn.it/~haardt/, allowing for several user-supplied input parameters, such as favourite cosmology, luminosity functions, Type II object evolution, stellar spectra, and many others. I will also present some new results of the UV/X-ray cosmic background as produced by the observed populations of QSOs and star forming galaxies, updating and extending our previous works. The background evolution is complemented with a number of derived quantities such as the ionization and thermal state of the IGM, the HeII opacity, the HI and HeII ionization rates, and the HI, HeII and Compton heating rates.

Survival is not Enough: Dust Sputtering, Growth, and H$_2$ Formation in Galactic Winds
Entrained clouds form high H2 fractions only with dust growth at densities ≳10–30 times the cloud-survival critical density; without growth, DGR dilution and sputtering keep them atomic.

Baryonic assembly bias in X-ray-selected galaxy groups and clusters: insights from the Magneticum simulation
At fixed halo mass in Magneticum, X-ray-bright (and especially gas-rich) groups show higher large-scale bias than faint/poor ones, largely explained by formation time.

Rapid sinking and efficient mergers of supermassive black holes in compact high-redshift galaxies
Cosmological zoom-in simulations demonstrate rapid SMBH mergers in dense high-z galaxies within 4-35 Myr after binary binding, matching JWST compact galaxy observations.

Columba: isolated dwarf galaxy populations in diverse cosmological environments simulated with a cold interstellar medium
New hydrodynamical simulations show that dwarf galaxy stellar mass-halo mass relations and star formation histories are more influenced by host halo concentration than by the 5 cMpc scale environment.
