Secularly powered outflows from AGNs: the dominance of non-merger driven supermassive black hole growth

Secularly powered outflows from AGNs: the dominance of non-merger driven supermassive black hole growth

Recent observations and simulations have revealed the dominance of secular processes over mergers in driving the growth of both supermassive black holes (SMBH) and galaxy evolution. Here we obtain narrowband imaging of AGN powered outflows in a sample of $12$ galaxies with disk-dominated morphologies, whose history is assumed to be …
