SIMPLIFI -- Study of Interstellar Magnetic Polarization: a Legacy Investigation of Filaments. I. Magnetically-Guided Accretion onto the DR21 Ridge

Thushara G. S. Pillai, Jens Kauffmann, Juan D. Soler +15

We present first results from SIMPLIFI (Study of Interstellar Magnetic Polarization: a Legacy Investigation of Filaments), a SOFIA/HAWC+ polarimetric survey of Galact…

The Galaxy Activity, Torus, and Outflow Survey (GATOS): N. Unveiling physical processes in local active galaxies. Unsupervised hierarchical clustering of JWST MIRI/MRS observations

L. Hermosa Muñoz, J. R. González Fernández, A. Alonso-Herrero +23

With the rise of the integral field spectroscopy, we are currently dealing with large amounts of spatially resolved data, whose analysis has become challenging, especially when obs…

JWST reveals the diversity of nuclear obscuring dust in nearby AGN: nuclear isolation of MIRI/MRS datacubes and continuum spectral fitting

Omaira González-Martín, Daniel J. Díaz-González, Mariela Martínez-Paredes +22

We investigate the capabilities of the mid-infrared instrument (MIRI) of James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) to advance our knowledge of AGN dust using the spectral fitting technique…

A biconical ionised gas outflow and evidence for positive feedback in NGC 7172 uncovered by MIRI/JWST

L. Hermosa Muñoz, A. Alonso-Herrero, M. Pereira-Santaella +35

We present observations of the type-2 Seyfert NGC7172 obtained with the medium-resolution spectrometer (MRS) of the Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) on board of the JWST. This galaxy…

The Galaxy Activity, Torus, and Outflow Survey (GATOS). III: Revealing the inner icy structure in local AGN

I. García-Bernete, A. Alonso-Herrero, D. Rigopoulou +24

We use JWST/MIRI MRS spectroscopy of a sample of six local obscured type 1.9/2 active galactic nuclei (AGN) to compare their nuclear mid-IR absorption bands with the level of nucle…

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…

The Galaxy Activity, Torus and Outflow Survey (GATOS): II. Torus and polar dust emission in nearby Seyfert galaxies

A. Alonso-Herrero, S. García-Burillo, S. F. Hoenig +30

We compare mid-IR and ALMA far-IR images of 12 nearby Seyferts selected from GATOS. The mid-IR unresolved emission contributes more than 60% of the nuclear emission in most galaxie…

The Galaxy Activity, Torus and Outflow Survey (GATOS) I. ALMA images of dusty molecular tori in Seyfert galaxies

S. García-Burillo, A. Alonso-Herrero, C. Ramos Almeida +32

We present the first results of the Galaxy Activity, Torus and Outflow Survey (GATOS), a project aimed at understanding the properties of the dusty molecular tori and their connect…
