A Candidate Runaway Supermassive Black Hole Identified by Shocks and Star Formation in its Wake
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 The interaction of a runaway supermassive black hole (SMBH) with the circumgalactic medium (CGM) can lead to the formation of a wake of shocked gas and young stars behind it.

How Supermassive Black Holes Shape Galaxies [PDF]
, 2023 We often think of black holes as mysterious objects that swallow everything that passes by them—from dust to entire stars. In reality, black holes “eat” in a messy way, while spinning around super quickly.

A NEARLY NAKED SUPERMASSIVE BLACK HOLE [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2017 ABSTRACT During a systematic search for supermassive black holes (SMBHs) not in galactic nuclei, we identified the compact, symmetric radio source B3 1715+425 with an emission-line galaxy offset ≈ 8.5

Supermassive Black Holes [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, Gravitation and Cosmology, 2019 The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) is aiming to image the event horizon of the supermassive black hole at the centre of our galaxy. Andrea Ghez has mapped out the orbits of stars around this supermassive black hole and deduced it has a mass of four million Suns. An even bigger supermassive black hole of six billion solar masses lies at the centre of the

, 2021 Black holes are defined as a region in spacetime where gravity is so strong that particles and electromagnetic radiation cannot escape. According to their mass, they are classified into three types: stellar-mass black holes, intermediate-mass black holes,

Annalen der Physik, Volume 538, Issue 8, August 2026.ABSTRACT The unification of quantum mechanics and general relativity remains a central problem in fundamental physics. Here, we study the gravitomagnetic Aharonov–Bohm (AB) effect for Cooper pairs in Kerr spacetime. Frame‐dragging by a rotating black hole (BH) generates an effective vector potential through the off‐diagonal metric term gtϕ$g_{t\phi }$,

Joint Formation of Supermassive Black Holes and Galaxies [PDF]
, 2003 The tight correlation between black hole mass and velocity dispersion of galactic bulges is strong evidence that the formation of galaxies and supermassive black holes are closely linked. I review the modeling of the joint formation of galaxies and their

Einstein-Yang-Mills black holes in anti de-Sitter space [PDF]
, 2012 In this thesis we consider Einstein-Yang-Mills black holes in asymptotically anti-de Sitter space, in the presence of an su(N) gauge eld. For a purely magnetic gauge eld we de ne a set of charges, namely the mass and N - 1 gauge invariant magnetic ...

Supermassive Black Hole Growth in Hierarchically Merging Nuclear Star Clusters
The Astrophysical JournalSupermassive black holes are prevalent at the centers of massive galaxies, and their masses scale with galaxy properties, increasing evidence suggesting that these trends continue to low stellar masses.
