Suzaku, Herschel Link a Black Hole 'Wind' to a Galactic Gush of Star-forming Gas

Herschel • News Release • March 25th, 2015

By combining observations from the Japan-led Suzaku X-ray satellite and the European Space Agency's infrared Herschel Space Observatory, scientists have connected a fierce "wind" produced near a galaxy's monster black hole to an outward torrent of cold gas a thousand light-years across.
