A dynamical measure of the black hole mass in a quasar 11 billion years ago
R. Abuter, F. Allouche, A. Amorim +124
Tight relationships exist in the local universe between the central stellar properties of galaxies and the mass of their supermassive black hole. These suggest galaxies and black h…
Broad-line region geometry from multiple emission lines in a single-epoch spectrum
L. Kuhn, J. Shangguan, R. Davies +17
The broad-line region (BLR) of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) traces gas close to the central supermassive black hole (BH). Recent reverberation mapping (RM) and interferometric spe…
The size-luminosity relation of local active galactic nuclei from interferometric observations of the broad-line region
GRAVITY Collaboration, A. Amorim, G. Bourdarot +42
By using the GRAVITY instrument with the near-infrared (NIR) Very Large Telescope Interferometer (VLTI), the structure of the broad (emission-)line region (BLR) in active galactic…
Polarimetry and Astrometry of NIR Flares as Event Horizon Scale, Dynamical Probes for the Mass of Sgr A*
The GRAVITY Collaboration, R. Abuter, N. Aimar +66
We present new astrometric and polarimetric observations of flares from Sgr A* obtained with GRAVITY, the near-infrared interferometer at ESO's Very Large Telescope Interferometer…
GMP-selected dual and lensed AGNs: selection function and classification based on near-IR colors and resolved spectra from VLT/ERIS, KECK/OSIRIS, and LBT/LUCI
F. Mannucci, M. Scialpi, A. Ciurlo +44
The Gaia-Multi-Peak (GMP) technique can be used to identify large numbers of dual or lensed AGN candidates at sub-arcsec separation, allowing us to study both multiple SMBHs in the…
Excited OH+, H2O+, and H3O+ in NGC 4418 and Arp 220
E. González-Alfonso, J. Fischer, S. Bruderer +15
We report on Herschel/PACS observations of absorption lines of OH+, H2O+ and H3O+ in NGC 4418 and Arp 220. Excited lines of OH+ and H2O+ with E_lower of at least 285 and \sim200 K,…
