A physical model for the coevolution of QSOs and their spheroidal hosts

GL Granato, G De Zotti, L Silva, A Bressan… - The Astrophysical …, 2004 - iopscience.iop.org
We present a physically motivated model for the early coevolution of massive spheroidal
galaxies and active nuclei at their centers. Within dark matter halos, forming at the rate …

[HTML][HTML] Accretion disk winds from active galactic nuclei

N Murray, J Chiang, SA Grossman… - Astrophysical Journal v …, 1995 - adsabs.harvard.edu
We present a dynamical model in which the broad absorption lines seen in some quasar
spectra form in a smooth nonspherical wind from an accretion disk. On the inner edge of this …

Dynamics of line-driven disk winds in active galactic nuclei

D Proga, JM Stone, TR Kallman - The Astrophysical Journal, 2000 - iopscience.iop.org
We present the results of axisymmetric time-dependent hydrodynamic calculations of line-
driven winds from accretion disks in active galactic nuclei (AGNs). We assume the disk is …

A global view of the inner accretion and ejection flow around super massive black holes-Radiation-driven accretion disk winds in a physical context

M Giustini, D Proga - Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2019 - aanda.org
Context. Understanding the physics and geometry of accretion and ejection around super
massive black holes (SMBHs) is important to understand the evolution of active galactic …

Unusual broad absorption line quasars from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

PB Hall, SF Anderson, MA Strauss… - The Astrophysical …, 2002 - iopscience.iop.org
ABSTRACT The Sloan Digital Sky Survey has confirmed the existence of populations of
broad absorption line (BAL) quasars with various unusual properties. We present and …

Quasi-stellar objects, ultraluminous infrared galaxies, and mergers

G Canalizo, A Stockton - The Astrophysical Journal, 2001 - iopscience.iop.org
We test the hypothesis that QSOs are formed via strong tidal interactions or mergers, initially
going through an ultraluminous infrared phase. Our approach is to look for traces of this …

The ultraviolet-bright, slowly declining transient PS1-11af as a partial tidal disruption event

R Chornock, E Berger, S Gezari… - The Astrophysical …, 2013 - iopscience.iop.org
