Exclusive interview-Indian Scientists Reveal How Supermassive Black Holes Shape The Fate Of Galaxies And The Birth Of Stars

In the vast stretches of the Universe, where galaxies shimmer with billions of stars, some appear mysteriously quiet. A new study led by astronomers at the Indian Institute of Astrophysics (IIA) suggests that supermassive black holes play a crucial role in shaping the fate of their host galaxies. The researchers found that powerful outflows of gas and radiation from these central black holes can suppress the formation of new stars, thereby influencing how galaxies grow and evolve.

Read my detailed interview with the lead scientists of the study. Payel Nandi, the lead author of the study and PhD student at IIA, along with Professor CS Stalin, co-author of the study, shared detailed insights into their research with ETV Bharat’s Sr. Journalist Dr. Anubha Jain.
