Kiloparsec-scale AGN outflows and feedback in merger-free galaxies
Kiloparsec-scale AGN outflows and feedback in merger-free galaxies
Recent observations and simulations have challenged the long-held paradigm that mergers are the dominant mechanism driving the growth of both galaxies and supermassive black holes (SMBH), in favour of non-merger (secular) processes. In this pilot study of merger-free SMBH and galaxy growth, we use Keck Cosmic Web Imager spectral observations …
