Uncovering the origin of complex velocity distributions in edge-on disc galaxies
Sophie Townson, Marie Martig, Robert J. J. Grand +3
Stellar line-of-sight velocity distributions are a powerful tool for studying galaxy kinematics and formation history, with multiple-peaked LOSVDs often indicating the presence of…
Testing dark matter models and modified gravity theories with spatially resolved HI observations
Federico Lelli, Antonino Marasco, Timothy A. Davis +8
Understanding the nature of dark matter (DM) is one of the most pressing questions of modern physics. The flat rotation curves of galaxies, especially the extended HI rotation curv…
WISDOM Project - XXVII. Giant molecular clouds of the lenticular galaxy NGC 1387: similarities with spiral galaxy clouds
Fu-Heng Liang, Martin Bureau, Lijie Liu +10
Molecular gas is crucial to understanding star formation and galaxy evolution, but the giant molecular clouds (GMCs) of early-type galaxies (ETGs) have rarely been studied. Here, w…
Kennicutt-Schmidt relation of galaxies over 13 billion years in the COLIBRE hydrodynamical simulations
Claudia del P. Lagos, Joop Schaye, Matthieu Schaller +16
We investigate the correlation between star formation rate (SFR) surface density and gas surface density (known as the Kennicutt-Schmidt, KS, relation) at kiloparsec (kpc) scales a…
Gravitational Torques from a Lopsided Young Stellar Component Sustain High Black Hole Accretion Rates in NGC 4593
Nico Winkel, Knud Jahnke, Juan Antonio Fernández-Ontiveros +8
Supermassive black holes (SMBHs) grow primarily through gas accretion, observed as active galactic nuclei (AGNs). While mergers can drive luminous AGN episodes, secular processes m…
WISDOM Project -- XXV. Improving the CO-dynamical supermassive black hole mass measurement in the galaxy NGC 1574 using high spatial resolution ALMA observations
Hengyue Zhang, Martin Bureau, Ilaria Ruffa +5
We present a molecular gas dynamical supermassive black hole (SMBH) mass measurement in the nearby barred lenticular galaxy NGC 1574, using Atacama Large Millimeter/sub-millimeter…
The Close AGN Reference Survey (CARS): A comparison between sub-mm and optical AGN diagnostic diagrams
Jacob S. Elford, Timothy A. Davis, Ilaria Ruffa +9
The relation suggests that there is a tight connection between dense gas and star formation. We use data from the Close AGN Reference Survey (CARS) to inve…
Stellar-gas kinematic misalignments in EAGLE: enhanced SMBH growth in misaligned galaxies
Maximilian K. Baker, Timothy A. Davis, Freeke van de Voort +1
Stellar-gas kinematic misalignments are a transient phenomenon observed in of the local galaxy population. According to current models, misaligned gas is expected to los…
Cloud populations versus galactic environment in NGC4689, NGC628, NGC1566, and NGC4321
H. Faustino Vieira, A. Duarte-Cabral, M. W. L. Smith +3
The study of molecular clouds in galaxies beyond the Local Group is limited by the need to efficiently sample diverse galactic environments across galactic discs, typically resulti…
Investigating the effects of fresh gas on the Active Galactic Nuclei luminosity of early- and late-type galaxies
Martyna W. Winiarska, Sandra I. Raimundo, Timothy A. Davis +3
The main fuelling processes for Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) are currently unknown. Previous work showed that galaxies with a large kinematic misalignment between their stellar and…
WISDOM Project -- XXII. A 5% precision CO-dynamical supermassive black hole mass measurement in the galaxy NGC 383
Hengyue Zhang, Martin Bureau, Ilaria Ruffa +8
We present a measurement of the supermassive black hole (SMBH) mass of the nearby lenticular galaxy NGC 383, based on Atacama Large Millimeter/sub-millimeter Array (ALMA) observati…
Stellar-gas kinematic misalignments in EAGLE: lifetimes and longevity of misaligned galaxies
Maximilian K. Baker, Timothy A. Davis, Freeke van de Voort +1
The dominant processes by which galaxies replenish their cold gas reservoirs remain disputed, especially in massive galaxies. Stellar-gas kinematic misalignments offer an opportuni…
Decoupling the rotation of stars and gas -- II: the link between black hole activity and MaNGA kinematics in TNG
Christopher Duckworth, Tjitske K. Starkenburg, Shy Genel +4
We study the relationship between supermassive black hole (BH) feedback, BH luminosity and the kinematics of stars and gas for galaxies in IllustrisTNG. We use a sample of galaxies…
The origin of the atomic and molecular gas contents of early-type galaxies. II. Misaligned gas accretion
Claudia del P. Lagos, N. D. Padilla, T. A. Davis +5
We study the origin of the wide distribution of angles between the angular momenta of the stellar and gas components, , in early-type galaxies (ETGs). We use the GALFO…
