in radio galaxies and quasars from an observational perspective, with an emphasis on …

A candidate runaway supermassive black hole identified by shocks and star formation in its wake

P van Dokkum, I Pasha, ML Buzzo… - The Astrophysical …, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org

WISDOM project–XIV. SMBH mass in the early-type galaxies NGC 0612, NGC 1574, and NGC 4261 from CO dynamical modelling

I Ruffa, TA Davis, M Cappellari… - Monthly Notices of …, 2023 - academic.oup.com
We present a CO dynamical estimate of the mass of the supermassive black hole (SMBH) in
three nearby early-type galaxies: NGC 0612, NGC 1574, and NGC 4261. Our analysis is …

Impact of relativistic jets on the star formation rate: a turbulence-regulated framework

A Mandal, D Mukherjee, C Federrath… - Monthly Notices of …, 2021 - academic.oup.com

Modelling observable signatures of jet-ISM interaction: thermal emission and gas kinematics

M Meenakshi, D Mukherjee, AY Wagner… - Monthly Notices of …, 2022 - academic.oup.com
Relativistic jets are believed to have a substantial impact on the gas dynamics and evolution
