We investigate the role of the close environment on the nuclear activity of a sample of 436
nearby (z< 0.3) QSO 2's–selected from SDSS-III spectra, via comparison of their …

Pairs of galaxies hosting active galactic nuclei (AGNs) are powerful probes of merger-driven
supermassive black hole (SMBH) growth as they can resolve individual AGNs and trace …

We present a study on the incidence of major mergers and their impact on the triggering of
nuclear activity in 47 type I and 236 type II optically selected AGN from the MaNGA DR15 …

We investigate the connection between the most luminous active galactic nuclei (AGN),
galaxy pairs, and post-mergers in the IllustrisTNG simulation. We select galaxy pairs and …

Cosmological simulations have been used to study interacting galaxies as a function of
galaxy pair separation, enabling comparisons with observational studies of galaxy pairs …

Observations of the nearby universe reveal an increasing fraction of active galactic nuclei
(AGNs) with decreasing projected separation for close galaxy pairs, relative to control …

We present a study of the morphology of star formation and the associated nuclear activity in
a sample of eight closely interacting southern galaxies, which are in different stages of …

We test the merger-induced dual active galactic nuclei (dAGNs) paradigm using a sample of
35 radio galaxy pairs from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Stripe 82 field. Using Keck optical …

To facilitate new studies of galaxy-merger-driven fueling of active galactic nuclei (AGNs), we
present a catalog of 387 AGNs that we have identified in the final population of over 10,000 …

The atomic-to-molecular gas conversion is a critical step in the baryon cycle of galaxies,
which sets the initial conditions for subsequent star formation and influences the multi-phase …
