Identifying the incidence of AGN as a function of star formation rate
Are AGN Quiescent Adolescents?
Is the evolution of galaxies and their AGN driven by past mergers?
Does an AGN help or hurt star formation?
A Seyfert 2 galaxy’s energetic nucleus creates impressive twin outflows, but how are they affecting its star formation?
Meet the AAS Keynote Speakers: Dr. Ryan Hickox
This year, the Chandra X-ray Observatory is celebrating its 20-year legacy. Dr. Ryan Hickox of Dartmouth College will explain how the resulting discoveries have shaped our view of the high-energy universe in his plenary talk at #AAS233.
Feeding black holes, up close and personal
Do we really understand how black holes grow? Using new methods to run high resolution simulations, the authors of this paper investigate the evolution of gas near a supermassive black hole – and their results have serious implications for the models commonly used in cosmological simulations.
What’s the powerhouse of the AGN?
Hint: It’s not mitochondria.
