The role of host galaxy kinematics in nuclear activity
Most bulge-dominated galaxies host a supermassive black hole and yet ongoing nuclear activity is observed in only ~5% of nearby galaxies. Reignition of dormant black holes is therefore required and a key unanswered question is whether the ignition mechanism is related to the galaxy host properties,...
