If you have a question about this talk, please contact Dr James Kirkbride.

Following on from last week’s talk on phenomena very close to a supermassive black hole, I will widen the focus to look at the structure of a black hole’s immediate environment. In particular, I will look at what we know about plasma winds driven by black hole activity, and their potential cosmological role in mediating black holes’ relationships with their host galaxies. Finally, I will present recent results which appear to provide a new piece of the puzzle in understanding the origins of these winds.
