Descripción
Galaxies are believed to become active by a process where two gas-rich
galaxies merge, causing gas inflow to the supermassive black hole, which
will then fuel the activity. As one of the most luminous types of active
galaxies, quasars can be used for studying the growth of supermassive
black holes in galaxies. The location of quasars in the large-scale
structure of the universe can give us valuable information on the
co-evolution of galaxies and the supermassive black holes. Our latest
results on the environments of quasars suggest that both the local and
large scale environments affect the evolution of activity in galaxies.
