We present CO (2− 1) and adjacent continuum observations of seven nearby radio-quiet
type-2 quasars (QSO2s) obtained with ALMA at∼ 0.2 ″resolution (370 pc at z∼ 0.1). These …

The triggering mechanism for the most luminous, quasar-like active galactic nuclei (AGN)
remains a source of debate, with some studies favouring triggering via galaxy mergers, but …

We present an analysis of the instantaneous supermassive black hole (SMBH) accretion
rates in a collection of 1563 post-merger galaxies drawn from the IllustrisTNG simulation …

We analyse Near-Infrared Integral Field Spectrograph (NIFS) observations of the type-2
quasar (QSO2) SDSS J094521. 33+ 173753.2 to investigate its warm molecular and ionized …

We investigate the role of galaxy mergers on supermassive black hole (SMBH) accretion
and star formation quenching in three state-of-the-art cosmological simulations with …

We present the results of our spatially resolved investigation into the interplay between the
ages of the stellar populations and the kinematics of the warm ionized outflows in the well …

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 …

Aims. Galaxy mergers represent a fundamental physical process under hierarchical
structure formation, but their role in triggering active galactic nuclei (AGNs) is still unclear …

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 …

Context. The study of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) is fundamental to discern the formation
and growth of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) and their connection with star formation …
