SUMMARY:The Cosmic History of Black Hole Growth 
DESCRIPTION:The Cosmic History of Black Hole Growth \nDr. Ezequiel Treister
 \n\nIt is now clear that supermassive black holes (M&gt;1e6 Msun) live in 
  the center of most (all) galaxies, including our own Milky Way.  Furtherm
 ore, the energy released  during the growth of this black hole is a critic
 al ingredient in  understanding galaxy formation and evolution. In this ta
 lk, I will show  what we know about how, when and  where these supermassiv
 e black holes are acquiring their masses. In  particular, I will focus on 
 the effects of obscuration, as it is now  clear that the majority of this 
 black  hole growth is hidden from our view by large amounts of gas and dus
 t. I  will present statistical evidence suggesting that while most nuclear
   activity is triggered by internal secular processes, the most violent ep
 isodes are linked to  major galaxy mergers. Finally, I will show how futur
 e data obtained  combining observations with  the ALMA radio telescope and
  the NuSTAR X-ray observatory will allow us  to understand the physical de
 tails of the connection between black hole  growth and galaxy evolution.
