Structural Decomposition of Merger-Free Galaxies Hosting Luminous AGNs
Matthew J. Fahey, Izzy. L. Garland, Brooke. D. Simmons +10
Active galactic nucleus (AGN) growth in disk-dominated, merger-free galaxies is poorly understood, largely due to the difficulty in disentangling the AGN emission from that of the…
The most luminous, merger-free AGN show only marginal correlation with bar presence
Izzy L. Garland, Matthew J. Fahey, Brooke D. Simmons +13
The role of large-scale bars in the fuelling of active galactic nuclei (AGN) is still debated, even as evidence mounts that black hole growth in the absence of galaxy mergers cumul…
Gems of the Galaxy Zoos -- a Wide-Ranging Hubble Space Telescope Gap-Filler Program
William C. Keel, Jean Tate, O. Ivy Wong +13
We describe the Gems of the Galaxy Zoos (Zoo Gems) project, a gap-filler project using short windows in the Hubble Space Telescope's schedule. As with previous snapshot programs, t…
Kiloparsec-scale AGN Outflows and Feedback in Merger-Free Galaxies
Rebecca J. Smethurst, Brooke D. Simmons, Alison Coil +7
Recent observations and simulations have challenged the long-held paradigm that mergers are the dominant mechanism driving the growth of both galaxies and supermassive black holes…
Secularly powered outflows from AGN: the dominance of non-merger driven supermassive black hole growth
Rebecca Smethurst, Brooke Simmons, Chris Lintott +1
Recent observations and simulations have revealed the dominance of secular processes over mergers in driving the growth of both supermassive black holes (SMBH) and galaxy evolution…
