A More Efficient Search for H2O Megamaser Galaxies : The Power of the X-ray and Mid-infrared Photometry
C. Y. Kuo, J. Y. Hsiang, H. H. Chung +10
We present a new investigation of the dependence of H2O maser detection rates and properties on the mid-IR AGN luminosity, L_AGN, and the obscuring column density, N_H, based on mi…

On Estimating the Mass of Keplerian Accretion Disks in H2O Maser Galaxies
C. -Y. Kuo, M. J. Reid, J. A. Braatz +3
H2O maser disks with Keplerian rotation in active galactic nuclei offer a clean way to determine accurate black hole mass and the Hubble constant. An important assumption made in u…
