Recipe to feed a Supermassive Black Hole
Interaction between galaxies move gas to the central kiloparsec via bars or spiral arms; from there, inflows along nuclear spirals and compact disks transfer gas to the dusty torus, that feeds the accretion disk, that feeds de Supermassive Black Hole (Source: Storchi-Bergmann & Schnorr-Müller 2019, Nature Astronomy).
Colloquium at Astronomy Department of University of Texas at Austin
I have been invited to give a virtual colloquium to the Astronomy Department of the University of Texas at Austin, which will take place the coming Tuesday, September 29, 2020, about “Observational Signatures of Feeding and Feedback of Supermassive Black Holes”. #astronomy #science #blackholes

Cosmic Web at z=8: Universe at 5% of its age
Mass density distribution (comoving 15 Mpc side, dominated by dark matter) when the Universe had 5% of its present age and the first galaxies, black holes and stars were forming.

OH molecule as a tracer of the triggering of nuclear activity
In a paper recently accepted for publication (Hekatelyne Carpes et al.), we have shown that one more OH Megamaser galaxy shows a recently triggered active nucleus:
