Research Highlights

NGC 3341, one of the triple galaxy mergers studied in the sample, shown in the optical as observed by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). When analyzing the X-ray observation, only one X-ray bright supermassive black hole was detected. (Credit: X-ray: NASA/CXC/Univ. of Michigan/A. Foord et al.; Optical: SDSS & NASA/STScI.)
What happens to the supermassive black holes at the hearts of merging galaxy trios?
