Supermassive black holes with high accretion rates in active galactic nuclei: I. First results from a new reverberation mapping campaign
P. Du, C. Hu, K. -X. Lu +7
We report first results from a large project to measure black hole (BH) mass in high accretion rate active galactic nuclei (AGNs). Such objects may be different from other AGNs in…
The Mean Star-Forming Properties of QSO Host Galaxies
D. J. Rosario, B. Trakhtenbrot, D. Lutz +22
Quasi-stellar objects (QSOs) occur in galaxies in which supermassive black holes (SMBHs) are growing substantially through rapid accretion of gas. Many popular models of the co-evo…
Fast Molecular Outflows in Luminous Galaxy Mergers: Evidence for Quasar Feedback from Herschel
S. Veilleux, M. Melendez, E. Sturm +18
We report the results from a systematic search for molecular (OH-119 um) outflows with Herschel-PACS in a sample of 43 nearby (z < 0.3) galaxy mergers, mostly ultraluminous infrare…
Star formation and black hole growth at z=4.8
Hagai Netzer, Rivay Mor, Benny Trakhtenbrot +2
We report Herschel Spitzer and Wise observations of 44 z=4.8 optically selected active galactic nuclei (AGNs). This sample contains the highest mass black holes (BHs) at this redsh…
What triggers black-hole growth? Insights from star formation rates
Eyal Neistein, Hagai Netzer
We present a new semi-analytic model for the common growth of black holes (BHs) and galaxies within a hierarchical Universe. The model is tuned to match the mass function of BHs at…
Nuclear Activity is more prevalent in Star-Forming Galaxies
D. J. Rosario, P. Santini, D. Lutz +14
We explore the question of whether low and moderate luminosity Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs) are preferentially found in galaxies that are undergoing a transition from active star…
