We study the properties of rotating accretion flows onto supermassive black holes (SMBHs) using axisymmetric two-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations with radiative cooling and BH feedback. The simulations resolve the accretion dynamics of gas outside from the BH influence radius through an inner accretion disk. For lower Bondi accretion rates in units of the Eddington rate ($dot{M}_{rm B}ll 10^{-3}~dot{M}_{rm Edd}$), the BH feeding is suppressed due to turbulent motion by several orders of magnitudes from the Bondi rate. Thus, the radiative luminosity results in as low as $sim 10^{-10}-10^{-7}~L_{rm Edd}$, where $L_{rm Edd}$ is the Eddington luminosity. For higher rates of $dot{M}_{rm B}> 10^{-3}~dot{M}_{rm Edd}$, the optically-thin accreting gas cools via free-free emission and forms a geometrically-thin disk, which feeds the BH efficiently and increases the radiative luminosity to $> 10^{-3}~L_{rm Edd}$. The transitional behavior of accreting BHs in galactic nuclei from radiatively inefficient phases to cold disk accretion naturally explains (1) the reason for the offset between the observed luminosities and theoretical predictions for nearby quiescent SMBHs, and (2) the conditions to fuel gas into the nuclear SMBH. In addition, the cold disk formed in galactic nuclei tends to be gravitationally unstable and leads to star formation when the Bondi rate is as high as $ dot{M}_{rm B} > 10^{-2}~M_odot~{rm yr}^{-1}$. This is a plausible explanation of the correlation observed between star formation rates and BH feeding rates in Seyfert galaxies.

Transition disks with large dust cavities around young stars are promising targets for studying planet formation. Previous studies have revealed the presence of gas cavities inside the dust cavities hinting at recently formed, giant planets. However,
many of these studies are biased towards the brightest disks in the nearby star forming regions, and it is not possible to derive reliable statistics that can be compared with exoplanet populations. We present the analysis of 11 transition disks with large cavities (>20 AU radius) from a complete disk survey of the Lupus star forming region, using ALMA Band 7 observations at 0.3 (22-30 AU radius) resolution of the 345 GHz continuum, 13CO and C18O 3-2 observations and the Spectral Energy Distribution of each source. Gas and dust surface density profiles are derived using the physical-chemical modeling code DALI. This is the first study of transition disks of large cavities within a complete disk survey within a star forming region. The dust cavity sizes range from 20-90 AU radius and in three cases, a gas cavity is resolved as well. The deep drops in gas density and large dust cavity sizes are consistent with clearing by giant planets. The fraction of transition disks with large cavities in Lupus is ~11%, which is inconsistent with exoplanet population studies of giant planets at wide orbits. Furthermore, we present a hypothesis of an evolutionary path for large massive disks evolving into transition disks with large cavities.
We study how star formation is regulated in low-mass field dwarf galaxies ($10^5 leq M_{star} leq 10^6 , text{M}_{odot}$), using cosmological high-resolution ($3 , text{pc}$) hydrodynamical simulations. Cosmic reionization quenches star formation in
all our simulated dwarfs, but three galaxies with final dynamical masses of $3 times 10^{9} ,text{M}_{odot}$ are subsequently able to replenish their interstellar medium by slowly accreting gas. Two of these galaxies re-ignite and sustain star formation until the present day at an average rate of $10^{-5} , text{M}_{odot} , text{yr}^{-1}$, highly reminiscent of observed low-mass star-forming dwarf irregulars such as Leo T. The resumption of star formation is delayed by several billion years due to residual feedback from stellar winds and Type Ia supernovae; even at $z=0$, the third galaxy remains in a temporary equilibrium with a large gas content but without any ongoing star formation. Using the genetic modification approach, we create an alternative mass growth history for this gas-rich quiescent dwarf and show how a small $(0.2,mathrm{dex})$ increase in dynamical mass can overcome residual stellar feedback, re-igniting star formation. The interaction between feedback and mass build-up produces a diversity in the stellar ages and gas content of low-mass dwarfs, which will be probed by combining next-generation HI and imaging surveys.
The origin of the observed morphological and kinematic substructure of young star forming regions is a matter of debate. We offer a new analysis of data from simulations of globally gravitationally collapsing clouds of progenitor gas to answer questi
ons about sub-structured star formation in the context of cold collapse. As a specific example, we compare our models to recent radial velocity survey data from the IN-SYNC survey of Orion and new observations of dense gas kinematics, and offer possible interpretations of kinematic and morphological signatures in the region. In the context of our model, we find the frequently-observed hub-filament morphology of the gas naturally arises during gravitational evolution, as well as the dynamically-distinct kinematic substructure of stars. We emphasize that the global and not just the local gravitational potential plays an important role in determining the dynamics of both clusters and filaments.
The $M_{BH}$ - $sigma_{star}$ relation is considered a result of co-evolution between the host galaxies and their super-massive black holes. For elliptical-bulge hosting inactive galaxies, this relation is well established, but there is still a debat
e whether active galaxies follow the same relation. In this paper, we estimate black hole masses for a sample of 19 local luminous AGNs (LLAMA) in order to test their location on the $M_{BH}$ - $sigma_{star}$ relation. Super-massive black hole masses ($M_{BH}$) were derived from the broad-line based relations for H$alpha$, H$beta$ and Pa$beta$ emission line profiles for the Type 1 AGNs. We compare the bulge stellar velocity dispersion ($sigma_{star}$) as determined from the Ca II triplet (CaT) with the dispersion measured from the near-infrared CO (2-0) absorption features for each AGN and find them to be consistent with each other. We apply an extinction correction to the observed broad line fluxes and we correct the stellar velocity dispersion by an average rotation contribution as determined from spatially resolved stellar kinematic maps. The H$alpha$-based black hole masses of our sample of AGNs were estimated in the range 6.34 $leq$ $log{M_{BH}}$ $leq$ 7.75 M$_odot$ and the $sigma_{star CaT}$ estimates range between 73 $leq$ $sigma_{star CaT}$ $leq$ 227 km s$^{-1}$. From the so-constructed $M_{BH}$ - $sigma_{star}$ relation for our Type 1 AGNs, we estimate the black hole masses for the Type 2 AGNs and the inactive galaxies in our sample. In conclusion, we find that our sample of local luminous AGNs is consistent with the $M_{BH}$ - $sigma_{star}$ relation of lower luminosity AGNs and inactive galaxies, after correcting for dust extinction and the rotational contribution to the stellar velocity dispersion.
We use dust masses ($M_{dust}$) derived from far-infrared data and molecular gas masses ($M_{mol}$) based on CO luminosity, to calibrate proxies based on a combination of the galaxy Balmer decrement, disk inclination and gas metallicity. We use such
proxies to estimate $M_{dust}$ and $M_{mol}$ in the local SDSS sample of star-forming galaxies (SFGs). We study the distribution of $M_{dust}$ and $M_{mol}$ along and across the Main Sequence (MS) of SFGs. We find that $M_{dust}$ and $M_{mol}$ increase rapidly along the MS with increasing stellar mass ($M_*$), and more marginally across the MS with increasing SFR (or distance from the relation). The dependence on $M_*$ is sub-linear for both $M_{dust}$ and $M_{mol}$. Thus, the fraction of dust ($f_{dust}$) and molecular gas mass ($f_{mol}$) decreases monotonically towards large $M_*$. The star formation efficiency (SFE, the inverse of the molecular gas depletion time) depends strongly on the distance from the MS and it is constant along the MS. As nearly all galaxies in the sample are central galaxies, we estimate the dependence of $f_{dust}$ and $f_{gas}$ on the host halo mass and find a tight anti-correlation. As the region where the MS is bending is numerically dominated by massive halos, we conclude that the bending of the MS is due to lower availability of molecular gas mass in massive halos rather than a lower efficiency in forming stars.
