XRISM/Resolve data on Mrk 509 show a tentative 3.6-sigma infalling absorber at 11000 km/s located within thousands of gravitational radii, interpreted as raining clumps from a failed wind.
J1105+1452 transitioned to a megahertz peaked-spectrum source with a new compact jet of radius ~0.68 pc, apparent velocity ~0.64c, and Doppler factor ~12, while X-ray emission stayed disk-corona dominated.
Spectroscopic observations of six low-mass, metal-poor SLSN host galaxies reveal slow stellar-wind-driven outflows with velocities 37-104 km/s and mass-loading factors below 1 in the earliest phases of star formation.
Low-luminosity FRII radio galaxies show higher core prevalence, comparable hotspots, and ~32% restarting/remnant behavior compared to bright FRIIs, revealing a highly diverse population where FRII dynamics occur at low powers.
JWST observations of ERQs show stratified gas kinematics via deblended optical emission lines, with UV lines dominated by scattered light and optical lines mixing scattered and obscured emission.
ArkenstoneBH is a new subgrid model for the hot phase of black hole feedback that, in isolated galaxy tests, suppresses star formation by counteracting gas inflows from the circumgalactic medium.
Evolved stars with radii ≳500 R_⊙ in nuclear star clusters can eclipse mm radio cores of nearby radio-loud AGN with ~10% relative depth, recurrence times ≳10 years, and durations ~10 days, enabling inference of SMBH masses and NSC composition.
Post-starburst galaxies at cosmic noon show very low radio detection rates and compact weak sources, consistent with short-lived low-luminosity AGN, while older quiescent galaxies exhibit stronger extended radio emission.
FIRE-2 simulations show that stellar radial redistribution scatter saturates at ~2 kpc for stars older than ~3 Gyr, with net orbital changes depending on age and current radius, broadly matching Milky Way observations.
NOEMA CO(2-1) data show a nuclear molecular outflow in NGC 3079 offset by 14 pc with velocities -350 to -450 km/s, mass outflow rate 8.82 M_sun/yr, kinetic power 3.8e41 erg/s, and momentum rate 15 times the AGN radiation momentum, indicating an energy-driven jet-powered outflow.
Five new HI 21-cm absorption detections in LERGs and HERGs at z<0.5 reveal disturbed gas kinematics with velocity offsets over 350 km/s and a 3% detection rate consistent with lower-redshift samples.
Radio AGN jets inject a total kinetic power density of 10^32 to 10^33 W per cubic megaparsec from z=0 to 2.5, matching requirements for feedback in galaxy evolution models.
XRISM measurements indicate turbulent dissipation from jets struggles to balance cooling in cluster atmospheres except possibly in limited inner regions of systems like Hydra A.
Multi-phase molecular gas in IRAS20551-4250 is dominated by cold CO, shows UV-heated warm H2, tidal features from a merger, and no molecular outflows, consistent with ongoing star formation.
Reverberation lags in Mrk 817 range 3-8 days, exceed thin-disk models by factors of 3-6, follow a λ^{4/3} trend with the ICCF method, and vary by up to a factor of 2 between epochs.
Panchromatic SED modeling yields SFRs with smaller offset and scatter than optical-only fits for starburst to post-starburst galaxies, while Prospector AGN torus models distinguish AGN but underpredict luminosities by an order of magnitude.
A workshop report recommends anomaly detection on existing telescope data to search for technosignatures from advanced minds powered by supermassive black holes.
A review summarizing detection methods, population statistics, and coevolution of supermassive black holes with host galaxies from early universe observations and simulations.
