On the origins, growth, and radiative efficiency of J0529-4351, reportedly the fastest-growing known black hole

Yash Aggarwal

SMSS J0521-4351 is reportedly the most luminous quasar known to date, and assuming a mean radiative efficiency of 0.1, it is inferred to be the fastest-growing black hole, accretin…

Evidence that Eddington ratio depends upon a supermassive black hole's mass and redshift: Implications for radiative efficiency

Yash Aggarwal

Presently, it is unclear whether the Eddington ratio and radiative efficiency depend upon a supermassive black hole's (SMBH's) redshift z and mass MBH. We attempt to resolve this i…

Accretion rates and radiative efficiencies of Sagittarius A* and nearby supermassive black holes estimated using empirical relations: Implications for accretion models

Yash Aggarwal

The Bondi accretion rate of black holes in our and nearby galaxies Messier 87, NGC 3115, NGC 1600, and Cygnus A have been determined or constrained using Chandra or other observati…

Comparative tests of accretion rates of quasars derived using a new empirical and an existing theoretical relation: Insights into black hole properties and growth

Yash Aggarwal

A scaling relation based on thin-disc accretion theory has been used by some workers to determine the mass-inflow rate onto 20 high-redshift (z) and 80 Palomar-Green quasars. Based…

Deciphering the origins and growth of supermassive black holes

Yash Aggarwal

We present a well-tested, theoretically supported empirical relation that helps decipher the origins, growth, and properties of SMBHs (supermassive black holes). Based on theoretic…
