The Discovery of Polarized Water Vapor Megamaser Emission in a Molecular Accretion Disk

Jack F. Gallimore, C. M. Violette Impellizzeri, Samaneh Aghelpasand +3

For the first time in an extragalactic source, we detect linearly polarized water maser emission associated with the molecular accretion disk of NGC 1068. The position angles of th…

WISDOM project -- XVIII. Molecular gas distributions and kinematics of three megamaser galaxies

Fu-Heng Liang, Mark D. Smith, Martin Bureau +11

The co-evolution of galaxies and supermassive black holes (SMBHs) underpins our understanding of galaxy evolution, but different methods to measure SMBH masses have only infrequent…

The Megamaser Cosmology Project. XI. A geometric distance to CGCG 074-064

D. W. Pesce, J. A. Braatz, M. J. Reid +6

As part of the survey component of the Megamaser Cosmology Project, we have discovered a disk megamaser system in the galaxy CGCG 074-064. Using the GBT and the VLA, we have obtain…

The Megamaser Cosmology Project. XII. VLBI Imaging of HO Maser Emission in Three Active Galaxies and the Effect of AGN Winds on Disk Dynamics

C. Y. Kuo, J. A. Braatz, C. M. V. Impellizzeri +7

We present VLBI images and kinematics of water maser emission in three active galaxies: NGC 5728, Mrk 1, and IRAS 08452-0011. IRAS 08452-0011 is a triple-peaked H2O megamaser, cons…

Enhancing the H2O Megamaser Detection Rate Using Optical and Mid-infrared Photometry

C. Y. Kuo, A. Constantin, J. A. Braatz +8

Water megamasers from circumnuclear disks in galaxy centers provide the most accurate measurements of supermassive black hole masses and uniquely probe the sub-parsec accretion pro…
