Understanding the connection between active galactic nuclei and host star formation through multi-wavelength population synthesis modeling

Supermassive black holes, black holes with masses <106 Msun, are found at the centers of all massive galaxies. These massive black holes grew from smaller seed black holes through accretion events. Accreting black holes are very bright in the radio through very hard X-ray spectral regimes. Due...
