The Star Formation-AGN Connection

Speaker

Ryan Hickox

Abstract

A remarkable fact about supermassive black holes is that their evolution is connected to that of their much larger host galaxies. The existence of this connection, in some form or another, has now been clear for decades but its precise physical nature continues to be a matter of much investigation. This discus-sion will be a (very broad, and inevitably biased!) overview of what we know about AGN fueling and feed-back, and the current and future observational and theoretical tools we can use to explore them.

An illustration of Sun-like star HD 181327 and its surrounding debris disk. The star is at top right. It is surrounded by a far larger debris disk that forms an incomplete ellpitical path and is cut off at right. There’s a huge cavity between the star and the disk. The debris disk is shown in shades of light gray. Toward the top and left, there are finer, more discrete points in a range of sizes. The disk appears hazier and smokier at the bottom. The star is bright white at center, with a hazy blue region around it. The background of space is black. The label Artist's Concept appears at lower left.
