Magnetized disk models lower the thermal-viscous instability threshold to Eddington ratios of 0.01-0.03 and yield limit-cycle timescales of months to years, jointly matching observations in five CLAGN only when the inner disk is strongly magnetized.
Resolved multiphase observations reveal a supernova-driven wind in a z=5.3 galaxy removing gas at twice the star-formation rate, potentially quenching it within 100 Myr and matching local superwind properties.

SPENDER autoencoder plus k-d tree nearest-neighbor classification on DESI spectra identifies AGN and broad-line AGN at accuracies 0.952 and 0.965, recovering sources missed by single-line diagnostics.
Requiring thin-disk solutions to be thermally stable and single-valued imposes η_x ≡ dlnα/dlnX > 4/7, and a viscosity law α∝X^p with p>4/7 removes the radiation-pressure unstable branch.
