Local supermassive black holes, relics of active galactic nuclei and the X-ray background

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors quantify the importance of mass accretion during AGN phases in the growth of supermassive black holes (BH) by comparing the mass function of black holes in the local universe with that expected from AGN relics, which are black holes grown entirely with mass accumulation during AGNs phases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sloan Digital Sky Survey IV: Mapping the Milky Way, Nearby Galaxies and the Distant Universe

Michael R. Blanton, +415 more
TL;DR: SDSS-IV as mentioned in this paper is a project encompassing three major spectroscopic programs: the Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory (MaNGA), the Extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (eBOSS), and the Time Domain Spectroscopy Survey (TDSS).
Journal ArticleDOI

A fundamental relation between mass, star formation rate and metallicity in local and high-redshift galaxies

TL;DR: The mass-metallicity relation observed in the local universe is due to a more general relation between stellar mass M★, gas-phase metallicity and star formation rate (SFR), and the existence of the FMR can be explained by the interplay of infall of pristine gas and outflow of enriched material as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Overview of the SDSS-IV MaNGA Survey: Mapping nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory

Kevin Bundy, +71 more
TL;DR: MaNGA (Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory) as mentioned in this paper employs dithered observations with 17 fiber-bundle integral field units that vary in diameter from 12'' (19 fibers) to 32'' (127 fibers).
