  5. Narrow Line Seyfert 1 Galaxies and the “Anti-hierarchical” Black Hole Growth

    Using a complete sample of soft X-ray selected AGNs, we show that highly accreting AGNs do not follow the MBH–σ relation of normal galaxies. This...

    Conference paper

  6. Torus Models for Obscuration in Type 2 AGN

    We discuss a clumpy model of obscuring dusty tori around AGN. Cloud-cloud collisions lead to an effective viscosity and a geometrically thick...

  8. Black Hole Growth in a Cosmological Context and the Associated Cosmic Star Formation History

    Based on a co-evolution scenario of massive black holes (MBH) and their host spheroids, we trace the BH growth and the joint cosmic star formation...

    Conference paper

  9. Planet Formation

    Motivating the study of planet formation is not difficult for any curious audience. One of the fundamental human questions is that of origins: “where...
