Galaxies are complex systems influenced by numerous factors. Despite extensive research, we cannot yet explain the diverse properties of nearby galaxies. Gas accretion, environments, galaxy merging, and supermassive black hole (SMBH) feedback play pivotal roles in galaxy evolution. In this talk, I will present an overview of my recent and current research. My work entails a comprehensive compar...
Observations indicate that massive elliptical galaxies in the contemporary universe exhibit both low star formation rates and low AGN luminosity. This raises a question: Given continuous gas accretion, how do these massive ellipticals maintain their quiescent state? SMBH feedback is a widely accepted solution to this issue, yet the mechanisms how it prevents gas accretion and subsequent star fo...
Estimating the spin of SgrA∗ is one of the current challenges we face in understanding the center of our Galaxy. In the present work, we show that detecting the gravitational waves (GWs) emitted by a brown dwarf inspiraling around SgrA∗ will allow us to measure the mass and the spin of SgrA∗ with unprecedented accuracy. Such systems are known as extremely large mass-ratio inspirals (XMRIs) a...
Our standard cosmological model predicts that most of the matter in the universe is distributed into a network of filaments - the Cosmic Web - in which galaxies form and evolve. Because most of this material is too diffuse to form stars, its direct detection in emission has remained elusive for several decades leaving fundamental questions still open, including: How are galaxies linked to each ...
