Was 49b: An Overmassive AGN in a Merging Dwarf Galaxy?

Nathan J. Secrest, Henrique R. Schmitt, Laura Blecha +2

We present a combined morphological and X-ray analysis of Was 49, an isolated, dual AGN system notable for the presence of a dominant AGN Was 49b in the disk of the primary galaxy…

Molecular outflows in local ULIRGs: energetics from multi-transition OH analysis

E. González-Alfonso, J. Fischer, H. W. W. Spoon +11

We report on the energetics of molecular outflows in 14 local Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies (ULIRGs) that show unambiguous outflow signatures (P-Cygni profiles or high-velocity a…

Inflowing gas onto a compact obscured nucleus in Arp 299A: Herschel spectroscopic studies of H2O and OH

N. Falstad, E. González-Alfonso, S. Aalto +1

Aims. We probe the physical conditions in the core of Arp 299A and try to put constraints to the nature of its nuclear power source. Methods. We used Herschel Space Observatory far…

Cold, clumpy accretion onto an active supermassive black hole

Grant R. Tremblay, J. B. Raymond Oonk, Françoise Combes +22

Supermassive black holes in galaxy centres can grow by the accretion of gas, liberating energy that might regulate star formation on galaxy-wide scales. The nature of the gaseous f…

The Age of the Directly-Imaged Planet Host Star Andromedae Determined From Interferometric Observations

Jeremy Jones, R. J. White, S. Quinn +4

Andromedae, an early type star that hosts a directly imaged low mass companion, is expected to be oblate due to its rapid rotational velocity ( = 162 $\mathrm{km…

Broad [CII] line wings as tracer of molecular and multi-phase outflows in infrared bright galaxies

A. W. Janssen, N. Christopher, E. Sturm +13

We report a tentative correlation between the outflow characteristics derived from OH absorption at and [CII] emission at in a sample of 22 local…
