Low Accretion Rates in Black Holes in Late-stage Merger Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies

Low Accretion Rates in Black Holes in Late-stage Merger Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies

We explore the accretion rates of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in late-stage galaxy mergers by observing three ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs), IRAS 14378-3651, IRAS 17208-0014 and IRAS 23365+3604, using the JWST/MIRI Medium Resolution Spectrometer and JWST/NIRSpec integral field unit....
