Dusty star-forming galaxies at high redshift

CM Casey, D Narayanan, A Cooray - Physics Reports, 2014 - Elsevier
Far-infrared and submillimeter wavelength surveys have now established the important role

What drives the growth of black holes?

DM Alexander, RC Hickox - New Astronomy Reviews, 2012 - Elsevier
Massive black holes (BHs) are at once exotic and yet ubiquitous, residing at the centers of
massive galaxies in the local Universe. Recent years have seen remarkable advances in …
