The Line Emission Terahertz Observatory (LETO): Exploring the lifecycle of the ISM and the origins of water
Dimitra Rigopoulou, Peter Roelfsema, William Grainger +13
The Interstellar Medium (ISM) is the reservoir of baryonic matter from which stars and planetary systems are formed. It is also the repository of the material that is expelled at t…
Shock-driven heating in the circumnuclear star-forming regions of NGC 7582: Insights from JWST NIRSpec and MIRI/MRS spectroscopy
Oscar Veenema, Niranjan Thatte, Dimitra Rigopoulou +24
We present combined JWST NIRSpec and MIRI/MRS integral field spectroscopy data of the nuclear and circumnuclear regions of the highly dust obscured Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 7582, which…
Galaxy Activity, Torus and Outflow Survey (GATOS) X: Molecular gas clumpiness under the influence of AGN
Federico Esposito, Almudena Alonso-Herrero, Santiago García-Burillo +27
The distribution of molecular gas on small scales regulates star formation and the growth of supermassive black holes in galaxy centers, yet the role of active galactic nuclei (AGN…
The properties of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in galaxies: constraints on PAH sizes, charge and radiation fields
Dimitra Rigopoulou, Marie Barale, David Clary +7
Based on theoretical spectra computed using Density Functional Theory we study the properties of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAH). In particular using bin-average spectra of…
