We show that the MBH–Mbulge scaling relations observed from local to high-z universe can be largely or even entirely explained by a non-causal origin, i.e., they do not imply need for any physically coupled growth of black hole (BH) and bulge mass, example, through feedback active galactic nuclei (AGNs). Provided some physics absolute normalization, creation fully hierarchical assembly BH stellar mass galaxy merging, an initially uncorrelated distribution masses in early universe. this with...

Euclid is an ESA mission designed to constrain the properties of dark energy and gravity via weak gravitational lensing galaxy clustering. It will carry out a wide area imaging spectroscopy survey (EWS) in visible near-infrared, covering roughly 15,000 square degrees extragalactic sky on six years. The wide-field telescope instruments are optimized for pristine PSF reduced straylight, producing very crisp images. This paper presents building reference survey: sequence pointings EWS, Deep...

Galaxies, which often contain ionised gas, sometimes also exhibit a so-called low-ionisation nuclear emission line region (LINER). For 30 years this was attributed to central mass-accreting supermassive black hole (AGN) of low luminosity, making LINER galaxies the largest AGN-sub-population, dominating in numbers over higher luminosity Seyfert and quasars. This, however, poses serious problem. While inferred energy balance is plausible, many LINERs clearly do not any other independent...
