Scientific paper

We claim that in the starburst environment there is no accretion of the ISM onto the BH and thus, in such cases, the BH luminosity is regulated by the mass-loss rate from massive stars in the star forming region. We calculate the accretion rate and show that it is usually small during the superwind stage and grows at the post-starburst stage, when the matter reinserted by intermediate-mass stars remains gravitationally bound and fuels the central BH.
