Buried AGNs in Advanced Mergers:Mid-infrared color selection as a dual AGN finder

open access: yes, 2017
A direct consequence of hierarchical galaxy formation is the existence of dual supermassive black holes (SMBHs), which may be preferentially triggered as active galactic nuclei (AGN) during galaxy mergers. Despite decades of searching, however, dual AGNs

Hierarchical Black Hole Mergers in Active Galactic Nuclei. [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2019
The origins of the stellar-mass black hole mergers discovered by LIGO/Virgo are still unknown. Here we show that if migration traps develop in the accretion disks of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) and promote the mergers of their captive black holes, the ...

European retail payments market: new opportunities to mergers and acquisition transactions

open access: yesMokslas: Lietuvos Ateitis, 2011
Most of European banks will not be able to allocate funds successfully participating in the SEPA. Some of them have to look for opportunities to reduce the cost in collaboration with other institutions in the execution of the payment or provision of ...

Spatially Offset Active Galactic Nuclei III: Discovery of Late-Stage Galaxy Mergers with The Hubble Space Telescope

open access: yes, 2018
Galaxy pairs with separations of only a few kpc represent important stages in the merger-driven growth of supermassive black holes (SMBHs). However, such mergers are difficult to identify observationally due to the correspondingly small angular scales ...

Monte Carlo simulations of black hole mergers in AGN discs: Low χeff mergers and predictions for LIGO [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019
Accretion discs around supermassive black holes are promising sites for stellar mass black hole mergers detectable with LIGO. Here we present the results of Monte Carlo simulations of black hole mergers within 1-d AGN disc models.

The Merger-Triggered Active Galactic Nuclei Contribution to the Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxy Population

open access: yes, 2012
It has long been thought that there is a connection between ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs), quasars, and major mergers. Indeed, simulations show that major mergers are capable of triggering massive starbursts and quasars.

Economic Performance in Merger Operations [PDF]

open access: yesOvidius University Annals: Economic Sciences Series, 2019
The role of mergers has grown considerably in the new economic context. Since the end of the last century, the waves of mergers have raised different questions: Why are mergers occurring, what are the reasons?

The merger of historically disadvantaged tertiary institutions in South Africa: A case study of the University of Limpopo

open access: yesCogent Business & Management, 2016
Since the merger, few attempts have been made to interrogate the role of leadership on the operational stability of the new university. By employing a qualitative approach, this study allowed the participants to construct an accurate and, in-depth ...

Preemptive distress resolution through bank mergers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
This paper suggests a motive for bank mergers that goes beyond alleged and typically unverifiable scale economies: preemtive resolution of banks´ financial distress.
