Black Hole -- Galaxy Co-evolution


الملخص بالإنكليزية

The growth of black holes and the formation and evolution of galaxies appear to be linked at such a fundamental level that we think of the two as `co-evolving. Recent observations show that this co-evolution may be complex and the result of several different pathways. While it is clear that black hole accretion is linked to specific phases of the evolution of the host galaxy, the impact of the energy liberated by the black hole on the evolutionary trajectory of the host by feedback is less clear. In this contribution, I review the motivations for co-evolution, the current state of the observational picture, and some challenges by black hole feedback.
