Abstract:Recent studies on dwarf galaxies reveal that some of them harbor a massive black hole (BH), which is believed to have a similar mass of the Supermassive BH ‘seeds’ at early times. The origin and growth of the primitive BHs are still open questions, since these BH seeds are hardly observed at high redshifts. Therefore, massive BH of dwarf galaxies can be the perfect candidates to untangle BH ‘seeds’ properties and their influence on their host galaxy evolution, since massive BH may preserve their initial condit… Show more
