The complex effect of gas cooling and turbulence on AGN-driven outflow properties

K. Zubovas, M. Tartėnas, M. A. Bourne

(abridged) Accretion onto supermassive black holes (SMBHs) at close to the Eddington rate can influence the host galaxy via powerful winds. Theoretical models of such winds can exp…

Slow and steady does the trick: Slow outflows enhance the fragmentation of molecular clouds

Martynas Laužikas, Kastytis Zubovas

Most massive galaxies host a supermassive black hole at their centre. Matter accretion creates an active galactic nucleus (AGN), forming a relativistic particle wind. The wind heat…

High-redshift SMBHs can grow from stellar-mass seeds via chaotic accretion

Kastytis Zubovas, Andrew R. King

Extremely massive black holes, with masses , have been observed at ever higher redshifts. These results create ever tighter constraints on the formation…

Intermittent AGN episodes drive outflows with a large spread of observable loading factors

Kastytis Zubovas, Emanuele Nardini

The properties of large-scale galactic outflows, such as their kinetic energy and momentum rates, correlate with the luminosity of the active galactic nucleus (AGN). This is well e…

The case for the fundamental - relation

Christopher Marsden, Francesco Shankar, Michele Ginolfi +1

Strong scaling relations between host galaxy properties (such as stellar mass, bulge mass, luminosity, effective radius etc) and their nuclear supermassive black hole's mass point…

Evolution of dwarf galaxy observable parameters

Eimantas Ledinauskas, Kastytis Zubovas

We present a semi-analytic model of isolated dwarf galaxy evolution and use it to study the build-up of observed correlations between dwarf galaxy properties. We analyse the evolut…
