Evidence of a Fraction of LIGO/Virgo/KAGRA Events Coming from Active Galactic Nuclei

The formation channels of the gravitational-wave (GW) sources detected by LIGO/Virgo/KAGRA (LVK) remain poorly constrained. Active galactic nucleus (AGN) has been proposed as one of the potential hosts, but the fraction of GW events originating from AGNs has not been quantified. Here, we constrain t...
