Active galactic nuclei and supermassive black holes  

Description

At the end of the course, the student will have a good knowledge of the observational and physical properties of Active Galaxies in the various bands of the electromagnetic spectrum and their cosmic evolution. The first black hole in the Universe will be discussed along with their growth history and active phases. Knowledge of the strict link between the accretion processes of supermassive black holes at the center of galaxies and star-formation activity, in the so-called co-evolution scenario involving feedback processes, will also be acquired by students.
