Misalignments in NGC 1068

Pierre Vermot

NGC 1068 is a nearby Active Galactic Nucleus (AGN) of type 2, meaning that its accretion disk is hidden behind a large amount of foreground extinction. Observations at several wave…

A geometric distance to the supermassive black Hole of NGC 3783

GRAVITY Collaboration, A. Amorim, M. Bauböck +45

The angular size of the broad line region (BLR) of the nearby active galactic nucleus (AGN) NGC 3783 has been spatially resolved by recent observations with VLTI/GRAVITY. A reverbe…

The hot dust in the heart of NGC 1068's torus: A 3D radiative model constrained with GRAVITY/VLTi

Pierre Vermot, Yann Clénet, Damien Gratadour +5

The central region of NGC 1068 is one of the closest and most studied Active Galactic Nucleus. It is known to be of type 2, meaning that its accretion disk is obscured by a large a…

The central parsec of NGC 3783: a rotating broad emission line region, asymmetric hot dust structure, and compact coronal line region

GRAVITY Collaboration, A. Amorim, M. Bauböck +47

Using VLTI/GRAVITY and SINFONI data, we investigate the sub-pc gas and dust structure around the nearby type 1 AGN hosted by NGC 3783. The K-band coverage of GRAVITY uniquely allow…

The spatially resolved broad line region of IRAS 09149-6206

GRAVITY Collaboration, A. Amorim, W. Brandner +41

We present new near-infrared VLTI/GRAVITY interferometric spectra that spatially resolve the broad Br emission line in the nucleus of the active galaxy IRAS 09149-6206. We use t…

An image of the dust sublimation region in the nucleus of NGC 1068

GRAVITY Collaboration, O. Pfuhl, R. Davies +40

We present near-infrared interferometric data on the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 1068, obtained with the GRAVITY instrument on the European Southern Observatory Very Large Telescope Inter…
