New radio constraints on the obscured star formation rates of massive GRB hosts at redshifts 2-3.5

Pradip Gatkine, Stuart Vogel, Sylvain Veilleux

It is not clear whether gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are unbiased tracers of cosmic star formation at . Since dusty starburst galaxies are significant contributors to the cosmic…

BAT AGN Spectroscopic Survey -- XIII. The nature of the most luminous obscured AGN in the low-redshift universe

Rudolf E. Bär, Benny Trakhtenbrot, Kyuseok Oh +18

We present a multi wavelength analysis of 28 of the most luminous low-redshift narrow-line, ultra-hard X-ray selected active galactic nuclei (AGN) drawn from the 70 month Swift/BAT…

The CGM-GRB Study. I. Uncovering The CircumGalactic Medium around GRB hosts at redshifts 2-6

Pradip Gatkine, Sylvain Veilleux, Antonino Cucchiara

Recent studies have revealed a dynamic interplay between the galaxy ecosystem and the circumgalactic medium (CGM). We investigate the CGM at high redshifts (z 2) by using…

Ionization Mechanisms in Quasar Outflows

Jason T. Hinkle, Sylvain Veilleux, David S. N. Rupke

The various ionization mechanisms at play in active galactic nuclei (AGN) and quasars have been well studied, but relatively little has been done to separately investigate the cont…
