Galaxy-Black Hole Co-evolution: Observational and Theoretical Perspectives
The connection between the mass of a galaxy and its central super-massive black hole has long been established, but is still little understood. As it’s increasingly clear that galaxies and SMBHs co-evolve, this session aims to bring together observers, theorists and simulators to discuss what is known and what is not yet understood in the context of recent results, e.g. from new HST observations of bulgeless galaxies hosting SMBHs and from the inclusion of sophisticated feedback models in the new generation of cosmological simulations. We will also look ahead to new facilities including JWST and the Event Horizon Telescope.
