MaNGA AGN dwarf galaxies (MAD)
Astronomy & AstrophysicsContext. Feedback from an active galactic nucleus (AGN) is one of the most important mechanisms in galaxy evolution. This phenomenon is usually found in massive galaxies and is known to regulate star formation. Although dwarf galaxies are assumed to be regulated by supernova feedback, recent studies have offered evidence to support the presence of AGN ...

An Enhanced Massive Black Hole Occupation Fraction Predicted in Cluster Dwarf Galaxies
The Open Journal of AstrophysicsThe occupation fraction of massive black holes (MBHs) in low mass galaxies offers interesting insights into initial black hole seeding mechanisms and their mass assembly history, though disentangling these two effects remains challenging.

Morphological Feature Distances among the Spectral Types of SDSS Galaxies
The Astrophysical JournalThis study investigates the morphological feature distances among various spectral types of galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, including strong and weak active galactic nuclei (AGN), quasi-stellar objects (QSOs), quiescent, and star-forming ...

Rare Occasions: Tidal Disruption Events Rarely Power the AGNs Observed in Dwarf Galaxies
The Astrophysical JournalTidal disruption events (TDEs) could be an important growth channel for massive black holes in dwarf galaxies. Theoretical work suggests that the observed active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in dwarf galaxies are predominantly TDE-powered. To assess this claim,
