... Stellar Evolution is driven entirely by the never ending battle between Pressure and Gravity . As imbalances are reached, the star is driven to find a new Energy source. ... Pressure and gravitational forces are equal, the star is stable and its core is sufficiently hot to fuse Hydrogen into Helium More about main sequence stars . ... The luminosity generated by the core fusion of Helium into Carbon is far greater than the shell luminosity associated with the fusion of Hydrogen into Helium. ...

... In the currently favored cosmology, CDM, the formation of dark matter structures can be simply understood as interactions solely through gravitational forces: small dark matter haloes form first and then merge together to build up larger ones. ... It is believed that such a process could be the feedback from the Active Galactic Nucleus (AGN; a BH accreting matter and radiating with large luminosities, LAGN 109 - 1015 L ) onto the host galaxy. ...

6th May 2015 . ATNF Colloquium . ... Much progress has been made in recent years in our understanding of the co-evolution of galaxies and supermassive black holes, and their connection to the underlying large-scale dark matter structure. In this talk I will discuss simulation and modelling techniques that bridge theories of galaxy and black hole formation with the properties of observed galaxy populations. ... today * ATNF | ...
