Team led by Indian-origin astrophysicist discovers largest dwarf galaxy samples

A team of scientists in the US, led by Indian-origin astrophysicist Raga Deepika Pucha, has discovered the largest samples of intermediate-mass black holes and dwarf galaxies with active black holes. Utilizing the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI), this discovery enhances our understanding of the dynamics between dwarf galaxy evolution and black hole growth.
