An Eddington ratio-driven origin for the LX- M∗relation in quiescent and star-forming active galaxies

An Eddington ratio-driven origin for the LX- M∗relation in quiescent and star-forming active galaxies

A mild correlation exists in active galaxies between the mean black hole accretion, as traced by the mean X-ray luminosity <LX> and the host galaxy stellar mass M∗, characterised by a normalization steadily decreasing with cosmic time and lower in more quiescent galaxies. We create comprehensi...
