Abstract We investigate active galactic nucleus (AGN) feedback from an intermediate-mass black hole at the center of a dwarf spheroidal galaxy, by performing isolated galaxy simulations using modified version GADGET-3 code. consider Leo II (PGC 34176) in Local Group as our simulation reference model. Beginning with seeds ranging 10 3 −10 6 M ⊙ , focus on comparing stellar/SN-only AGN+stellar/SN over 13.7 Gyr evolution. Our results indicate that low-mass AGN influences star formation history...

We show that it is possible to explain the physical origin of jet precession in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) through misalignment between rotation axes accretion disk and Kerr black hole. apply this scenario quasars, Seyfert galaxies also Galactic Center hole Sgr A*, for which signatures either or have been found. The formalism adopted parameterized by ratio period mass can be used put constraints properties as well spin those systems.

The Bardeen-Petterson general relativistic effect has been suggested as the mechanism responsible for precession in some accretion disk systems. Here we examine separately four mechanisms (tidal, irradiative, magnetic, and Bardeen-Petterson) that can lead to warping precession. We use a sample of eight X-ray binaries active galactic nuclei (AGNs) present signatures and/or their disks explore viability different mechanisms. For SMC X-1 4U 1907+09, all provide periods compatible with those...

Strong evidence for the presence of a warped Keplerian accretion disc in NGC4258 (M 106) has been inferred from kinematics water masers detected at sub-parsec scales. Assuming power-law and using constraints on parameters derived observational data, we have analyzed relativistic Bardeen-Petterson effect driven by Kerr black hole as potential physical mechanism responsible warping. We found that radius is comparable to or smaller than inner maser (independent allowed value spin parameter)....

If we assume that nuclei of extragalactic radio sources contain binary black hole systems, the two holes can eject VLBI components, in which case families different trajectories will be observed. Another important consequence a system is core associated with one hole, and if component ejected by second expects to able detect offset origin not core. The ejection components perturbed precession accretion disk motion around center gravity system. We modeled taking into account pertubations...
