The Complex Multiwavelength Morphology of the Peculiar Compact Galaxy Group IC 2431

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present new Chandra X-ray imaging spectroscopy of the compact galaxy group IC 2431, and compare with archival ultraviolet, optical, infrared, and radio images. IC 2431 is a starburst system containing three tidally distorted disk galaxies.

Morphologies of low-redshift AGN host galaxies: what role does AGN luminosity play?

open access: yes, 2013
Mergers of galaxies have been suspected to be a major trigger of AGN activity for many years. However, when compared to carefully matched control samples, AGN host galaxies often show no enhanced signs of interaction.

X-Ray Bright Active Galactic Nuclei in Local Dwarf Galaxies: Insights from eROSITA

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Although supermassive black holes (SMBHs) reside in the heart of virtually every massive galaxy, it remains debated whether dwarf galaxies commonly host SMBHs. Because low-mass galaxies may retain memory of the assembly history of their black holes (BHs),

Radio Active Galactic Nuclei Activity in Low Redshift Galaxies Is Not Directly Related to Star Formation Rates

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We examine the demographics of radio-emitting active galactic nuclei (AGN) in the local Universe as a function of host galaxy properties, most notably both stellar mass ( M _⋆ ) and star formation rate (SFR).

Exploring the Active Galactic Nucleus Fraction of a Sample of JWST’s Little Red Dots at 4 < z < 8: Overmassive Black Holes Are Strongly Favored

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
JWST is revolutionizing our view of the early Universe by pushing the boundaries of detectable galaxies and black holes in redshift (upward) and mass (downward).

Agn Host Galaxy Properties And Mass Function

open access: yes, 2016
Supermassive black hole growth, nuclear activity, and galaxy evolution have been found to be closely related. In the context of AGN-galaxy coevolution, I will discuss about the relation found between the host galaxy properties and the central BH and I will present the latest determination of the host galaxy stellar mass function (HGMF), and the ...

The Host Galaxy Fluxes of Active Galaxy Nuclei Are Generally Overestimated by the Flux Variation Gradient Method

open access: yesUniverse
In terms of the variable nature of normal active galaxy nuclei (AGN) and luminous quasars, a so-called flux variation gradient (FVG) method has been widely utilized to estimate the underlying non-variable host galaxy fluxes.
