abstract
We explore the relation between the structure and mass accretion histories of dark matter halos using a suite of cosmological simulations. We confirm that the formation time, defined as the time when the virial mass of the main progenitor equals the mass enclosed within the scale radius, correlates strongly with concentration. We provide a semi-analytic model for halo mass history that combines analytic relations with fits to simulations. This model has the functional form, $M(z) = M_{0}(1+z)^{\alpha}e^{\beta z}$, where the parameters $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are directly correlated with concentration. We then combine this model for the halo mass history with the analytic relations between $\alpha$, $\beta$ and the linear power spectrum derived by Correa et al. (2014) to establish the physical link between halo concentration and the initial density perturbation field. Finally, we provide fitting formulas for the halo mass history as well as numerical routines, we derive the accretion rate as a function of halo mass, and we demonstrate how the halo mass history depends on cosmology and the adopted definition of halo mass.

Direct detection of cool molecular gas in a star-forming galaxy at $z=7.31$
Direct detection of CO(3-2) at z=7.31 in REBELS-25 gives M_mol ~ 10^11 M_sun with f_gas ~0.95, confirming a massive molecular reservoir and showing low-J CO remains detectable in the Epoch of Reionization.

Learning the Universe: The Structure of Dust Attenuation Curves in Galaxy Simulations
Four parameters suffice to describe dust attenuation curve diversity in TNG simulations, yielding a new symbolic-regression model that recovers curves and fluxes better than existing parameterizations while linking pa...

The diffraction-lensing interpretation of GW231123 with astrophysical priors
GW231123 is better fit by a lower-mass merger diffracted by an isolated ~1000 M_sun lens, but astrophysical priors and a frequentist rate estimate make this lensing interpretation unlikely.

Ultraviolet diversity of Little Red Dots as a probe for direct-collapse black hole ages
Cosmological hydrodynamical simulations predict that UV diversity in Little Red Dots encodes direct-collapse black hole ages via a rapid transition from BH- to stellar-dominated emission after ~30 Myr.
