An Eddington ratio-driven origin for the ${\mathrm{L}}_{\mathrm{X}}-{\mathrm{M}}_{\ast }$ relation in quiescent and star forming active galaxies

Rosamaria Carraro, Francesco Shankar, Viola Allevato +5

A mild correlation exists in active galaxies between the mean black hole accretion, as traced by the mean X-ray luminosity $⟨{\mathrm{L}}_{\mathrm{X}}⟩$, and the host galaxy stell…
