A Detailed Look at the Most Obscured Galactic Nuclei in the Mid-Infrared
F. R. Donnan, D. Rigopoulou, I. García-Bernete +6
Context. Compact Obscured Nuclei (CONs) are an extreme phase of galaxy evolution where rapid supermassive black hole growth andor compact star-forming activity is completely obs…
Torus and polar dust dependence on AGN properties
I. García-Bernete, O. González-Martín, C. Ramos Almeida +8
We present a statistical analysis of the properties of the obscuring material around active galactic nuclei (AGN). This study represents the first of its kind for an ultra-hard X-r…
A high angular resolution view of the PAH emission in Seyfert galaxies using JWST/MRS data
I. García-Bernete, D. Rigopoulou, A. Alonso-Herrero +16
Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) are carbon-based molecules that are ubiquitous in a variety of astrophysical objects and environments. In this work, we use JWST/MIRI MRS sp…
Probing computational methodologies in predicting mid-infrared spectra for large polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons
Boutheïna Kerkeni, Ismael García-Bernete, Dimitra Rigopoulou +3
We extend the prediction of vibrational spectra to large sized polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) molecules comprising up to \sim 1500 carbon atoms by evaluating the efficiency…
Low-power jet-ISM interaction in NGC 7319 revealed by JWST/MIRI MRS
M. Pereira-Santaella, J. Álvarez-Márquez, I. García-Bernete +8
We present JWST/MIRI MRS spectroscopy of NGC7319, the largest galaxy in the Stephan's Quintet, observed as part of the Early Release Observations (ERO). NGC7319 hosts a type 2 acti…
A technique to select the most obscured galaxy nuclei
I. García-Bernete, D. Rigopoulou, S. Aalto +5
Compact obscured nuclei (CONs) are mainly found in local U/LIRGs. In the local Universe, these sources are generally selected through the detection of the HCN-vib (3-2) emission li…
Unveiling the Main Sequence to Starburst Transition Region with a Sample of Intermediate Redshift Luminous Infrared Galaxies
L. Hogan, D. Rigopoulou, S. García-Burillo +8
We present a CO(3-2) study of four systems composed of six (ultra) luminous infrared galaxies (U/LIRGs), located at 0.28 < z < 0.44, that straddle the transition region between reg…
