High-frequency water megamasers as precision probes of black holes, galaxies and cosmology: A case for a next-generation sub-mm/mm interferometer
Ingyin Zaw, C. M. Violette Impellizzeri, Dominic W. Pesce +8
Water megamasers in the circumnuclear disks of active galactic nuclei are among the most precise probes of supermassive black holes. VLBI imaging of 22 GHz disk masers has provided…
AGN Feeding and Feedback: Resolving the Torus
M. Pereira-Santaella, F. Combes, A. Alonso-Herrero +16
Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) play a key role in galaxy evolution by regulating star formation within their host galaxies. It is therefore crucial to understand how the central supe…
Resolving the Assembly of Disk Galaxies from the Epoch of Reionisation to Cosmic Noon
Melanie Kaasinen, Mahsa Kohandel, Francesca Rizzo +45
Most of the mass and angular momentum of today's disk galaxies assembled at . Yet, it remains unclear how these galaxies acquired their gas, how their baryons and dark matter…
The dawn of the first galaxies
Livia Vallini, Tanio Diaz Santos, Belen Alcalde Pampliega +56
Understanding how the first galaxies assembled their stellar mass at cosmic dawn is a central frontier of modern astrophysics. JWST has now revealed an unexpected population of ult…
Tracing small-scale structure formation through cosmic time with strong gravitational lensing: A case for a next-generation sub-millimetre/millimetre interferometer
Hannah R. Stacey, John P. McKean, Mamta Pandey-Pommier +12
The nature of dark matter and the growth of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) remain major open questions in modern astrophysics. Both leave a key signature in an overlapping, large…
A novel approach to visibility-space modelling of interferometric gravitational lens observations at high angular resolution
Devon Powell, Simona Vegetti, John P. McKean +3
We present a new gravitational lens modelling technique designed to model high-resolution interferometric observations with large numbers of visibilities without the need to pre-av…
