Abstract Radiation‐magnetohydrodynamic simulation of the active galactic nuclei predicts the presence of the strong accretion disk wind, which gets unstable far from the central region and turns into gas clumps. These inner wind and outer clumps may be actually observed as the ultrafast outflows (UFOs) and the clumpy absorbers, respectively.

We propose the simple new method for extracting the value of the black hole spin from the direct high-resolution image of black hole by using a thin accretion disk model.

Structure and stability of differentially rotating compact stellar objects
Abstract Depending on the dynamics of a binary neutron star merger, the collision may result in a differentially rotating compact object. Differentially rotating stars can sustain a total mass considerably higher than that of a uniformly rotating star, giving rise to “hypermassive” objects like hypermassive neutron stars.

Impact of supermassive black hole growth on star formation [PDF]
Supermassive black holes are found at the centres of massive galaxies. During the growth of these black holes they light up to become visible as active galactic nuclei (AGNs) and release extraordinary amounts of energy across the electromagnetic spectrum.

Key Science Goals for the Next-Generation Event Horizon Telescope
The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) has led to the first images of a supermassive black hole, revealing the central compact objects in the elliptical galaxy M87 and the Milky Way.

The first supermassive black holes [PDF]
We briefly review the historical development of the ideas regarding the first supermassive black hole seeds, the physics of their formation and radiative feedback, recent theoretical and observational progress, and our outlook for the future.

Growth of Supermassive Black Holes, Galaxy Mergers and Supermassive Binary Black Holes [PDF]
AbstractThe study of galaxy mergers and supermassive binary black holes (SMBBHs) is central to our understanding of the galaxy and black hole assembly and (co-)evolution at the epoch of structure formation and throughout cosmic history. Galaxy mergers are the sites of major accretion episodes, they power quasars, grow supermassive black holes (SMBHs ...

Testing General Relativity with Stellar Orbits around the Supermassive Black Hole in Our Galactic Center. [PDF]
We demonstrate that short-period stars orbiting around the supermassive black hole in our Galactic center can successfully be used to probe the gravitational theory in a strong regime. We use 19 years of observations of the two best measured short-period
