Research

My thesis work centers on a study of star formation and kinematics of the Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) host galaxies at nearby universe (z < 0.2). There are two spectroscopic data sets that will form basis of my thesis. The first is data from observation using VIMOS-Integral Field Unit mounted at VLT-Melipal and second from observation with FORS2 instrument at VLT-Kueyen.

The study will help constrain the fueling mechanisms of AGN and relation between AGN activity with star formation in host galaxies to understand the role of AGN to the transition of galaxies from blue cloud to the red sequence population in the color magnitude diagram. In more general, this study is a part of our effort to understand the relation of the Supermassive Black Hole (SMBH) and their host galaxies.

I will put some important results here...
