A diversity of dusty AGN tori: Data release for the VLTI/MIDI AGN Large Program and first results for 23 galaxies
Leonard Burtscher, Klaus Meisenheimer, Konrad R. W. Tristram +9
The AGN-heated dust distribution (the "torus") is increasingly recognized not only as the absorber required in unifying models, but as a tracer for the reservoir that feeds the nuc…
Resolving the nucleus of Centaurus A at mid-IR wavelengths
Leonard Burtscher, Klaus Meisenheimer, Walter Jaffe +2
We have observed Centaurus A with the MID-infrared Interferometric instrument (MIDI) at the Very Large Telescope Interferometer (VLTI) at resolutions of 7 - 15 mas (at 12.5 micron)…
Herschel photometry of brightest cluster galaxies in cooling flow clusters
A. C. Edge, J. B. R. Oonk, R. Mittal +24
The dust destruction timescales in the cores of clusters of galaxies are relatively short given their high central gas densities. However, substantial mid-infrared and sub-mm emiss…
Herschel observations of FIR emission lines in brightest cluster galaxies
A. C. Edge, J. B. R. Oonk, R. Mittal +24
The question of how much gas cools in the cores of clusters of galaxies has been the focus of many, multiwavelength studies in the past 30 years. In this letter we present the firs…
Parsec-scale dust distributions in Seyfert galaxies - Results of the MIDI AGN snapshot survey
Konrad R. W. Tristram, David Raban, Klaus Meisenheimer +11
The emission of warm dust dominates the mid-infrared spectra of active galactic nuclei (AGN). Only interferometric observations provide the necessary angular resolution to resolve…
