Extragalactic magnetism with SOFIA (Legacy Program) -- II: A magnetically-driven flow in the starburst ring of NGC 1097
Enrique Lopez-Rodriguez, Rainer Beck, Susan E. Clark +10
Galactic bars are frequent in disk galaxies and they may support the transfer of matter towards the central engine of active nuclei. The barred galaxy NGC 1097 has magnetic forces…
The hot dust in the heart of NGC 1068's torus: A 3D radiative model constrained with GRAVITY/VLTi
Pierre Vermot, Yann Clénet, Damien Gratadour +5
The central region of NGC 1068 is one of the closest and most studied Active Galactic Nucleus. It is known to be of type 2, meaning that its accretion disk is obscured by a large a…
Extragalactic Magnetism with SOFIA (Legacy Program) -- I: The magnetic field in the multi-phase interstellar medium of M51
Alejandro S. Borlaff, Enrique Lopez-Rodriguez, Rainer Beck +17
The recent availability of high-resolution far-infrared (FIR) polarization observations of galaxies using HAWC+/SOFIA has facilitated studies of extragalactic magnetic fields in th…
High angular resolution polarimetric imaging of the nucleus of NGC 1068: Disentangling the polarising mechanisms
L. Grosset, D. Rouan, F. Marin +8
Polarisation is a decisive method to study the inner region of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) since it is not affected by contrast issues similarly to how classical imaging is. When…
The role of Active Galactic Nuclei in galaxy evolution: insights from space ultraviolet spectropolarimetry
F. Marin, S. Charlot, B. Agís González +6
This Astro2020 white paper summarizes the unknowns of active galactic nuclei (AGN) physics that could be unveiled thanks to a new, space-born, ultraviolet spectropolarimeter. The u…
Probing the structure and evolution of active galactic nuclei with the ultraviolet polarimeter POLLUX aboard LUVOIR
F. Marin, S. Charlot, D. Hutsemékers +6
The ultraviolet (UV) polarization spectrum of nearby active galactic nuclei (AGN) is poorly known. The Wisconsin Ultraviolet Photo-Polarimeter Experiment and a handful of instrumen…
Stellar cusp and warm dust at the heart of NGC1068
Daniel Rouan, Lucas Grosset, Damien Gratadour
Establishing precisely how stars and interstellar medium distribute within the central 100 pc area around an AGN, down to the pc scale, is key for understanding how the very final…
Exploring the inner parsecs of Active Galactic Nuclei using near-infrared high resolution polarimetric simulations with MontAGN
Lucas Grosset, Daniel Rouan, Damien Gratadour +4
Aims: In this paper, we aim to constrain the properties of dust structures in the central first parsecs of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN). Our goal is to study the required optical d…
Understanding active galactic nuclei using near-infrared high angular resolution polarimetry I : MontAGN - stokes comparison
Lucas Grosset, Frédéric Marin, Damien Gratadour +5
In this first research note of a series of two, we present a comparison between two Monte Carlo radiative transfer codes: MontAGN and STOKES. Both were developed in order to better…
Understanding Active Galactic Nuclei using near-infrared high angular resolution polarimetry II: Preliminary results
F. Marin, L. Grosset, R. Goosmann +5
In this second research note of a series of two, we present the first near-infrared results we obtained when modeling Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN). Our first proceedings showed the…
