Active Galactic Nuclei

Fueling and feedback

Ebook (EPUB Format)

Almost all galaxies host in their center a supermassiveblack hole of mass between a million and tens of billions solar masses. Supermassive black holes grow in symbiosiswith their host galaxies across the Hubble time, occasionally accretingsurround matter, giving rise to an Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN). This book gives a general review of our current knowledgeof AGN, powered by supermassive black holes: how they are fueled by gas (orstars) and what problems are encountered; how can we account for the widevariety of AGN, from Seyfert/Liners to quasars, and for the two types (AGN 1and 2) either through dust obscuration, and geometrical orientat… Mehr
