Nuclear star formation activity and black hole accretion in nearby Seyfert galaxies
P. Esquej, A. Alonso-Herrero, O. González-Martín +10
Recent theoretical and observational works indicate the presence of a correlation between the star formation rate (SFR) and the active galactic nuclei (AGN) luminosity (and, theref…
Estimations of the magnetic field strength in the torus of AGN using near-infrared polarimetry
E. Lopez-Rodriguez, C. Packham, S. Young +7
An optically and geometrically thick torus obscures the central engine of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) from some lines of sight. From a magnetohydrodynamical framework, the torus c…
Dust in active galactic nuclei. Mid-infrared T-ReCS/Gemini spectra using the new RedCan pipeline
O. Gonzalez-Martin, J. M. Rodriguez-Espinosa, T. Diaz-Santos +6
The unified model of active galactic nuclei (AGN) claims that the properties of AGN depend on the viewing angle of the observer with respect to a toroidal distribution of dust surr…
Testing the AGN Unification Model in the Infrared
Cristina Ramos Almeida, N. A. Levenson, A. Alonso-Herrero +7
We present near-to-mid-infrared spectral energy distributions (SEDs) for 21 Seyfert galaxies, using subarcsecond resolution imaging data. Our aim is to compare the properties Seyfe…
Testing the Unification Model for AGN in the Infrared: are the obscuring tori of Type 1 and 2 Seyferts different?
C. Ramos Almeida, N. A. Levenson, A. Alonso-Herrero +7
We present new mid-infrared (MIR) imaging data for three Type-1 Seyfert galaxies obtained with T-ReCS on the Gemini-South Telescope at subarcsecond resolution. Our aim is to enlarg…
The Nature of the Near-IR Core Source in 3C 433
Edgar A. Ramirez, C. N. Tadhunter, D. Axon +4
We report the analysis of near-infrared imaging, polarimetric and spectroscopic observations of the powerful radio galaxy 3C433, obtained with the HST and UKIRT telescopes. The hig…
