The Role of the Eddington Ratio in Shaping the Polar Wind and Dust Distribution in AGN
Abstract
The growth of supermassive black holes manifests itself as Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) and is believed to play a major role in the formation of galaxies. However, the physical processes behind AGN feeding and feedback, and their dependence on the accretion rate, remain poorly understood. Observing nearby AGN at the highest angular resolutions offers a valuable approach to better understand these dependencies.
