A Luminous X-ray AGN in the Dwarf-Dwarf Galaxy Merger RGG 66

Seth Kimbrell, Amy Reines

We present the discovery of a luminous X-ray AGN in the dwarf galaxy merger RGG 66. The black hole is predicted to have a mass of and to be radia…

A Comparison Between the Morphologies and Structures of Dwarf Galaxies with and without Active Massive Black Holes

Seth J. Kimbrell, Amy E. Reines, Jenny E. Greene +1

We study the morphologies and structures of 57 dwarf galaxies that are representative of the general population of dwarf galaxies, and compare their demographics to a sample of dwa…
