Dust production in the harsh environment of Sgr A* - MIRI/JWST observation of the O-rich asymptotic giant branch star IRS~3

F. Peißker, M. García Marín, A. Eckart +18

Studies of the interstellar medium (ISM) have frequently revealed signatures of the dust produced in the envelopes of asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars, demonstrating a connectio…

MICONIC: The spatial relationship between star formation and the AGN in Centaurus A revealed by JWST/MIRI

O. C. Jones, M. L. Jones, D. Dicken +21

Centaurus A (Cen A), the nearest active radio galaxy, hosts a warped dust disc formed in a gas-rich merger. We present JWST/MIRI imaging in three filters, F560W, F770W, and F1130W,…

High resolution mapping of molecular tori with ALMA

F. Combes, A. Audibert, S. Garcia-Burillo +11

Recent high resolution mapping of the circum-nuclear regions of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) has revealed the existence of geometrically thin nuclear disks, in general randomly ori…

MICONIC: JWST/MIRI MRS reveals a fast ionized gas outflow in the central region of Centaurus A

A. Alonso-Herrero, L. Hermosa Muñoz, A. Labiano +20

We present a kinematical study of the ionized and molecular gas in the central region (~7-14"~100-200pc) of the nearby radio galaxy Cen A. We used JWST/MIRI MRS 5-28m observati…

JWST Observations of Starbursts: Relations between PAH features and CO clouds in the starburst galaxy M 82

V. Villanueva, A. D. Bolatto, R. Herrera-Camus +22

We present a study of new 7.7-11.3 m data obtained with the James Webb Space Telescope Mid-InfraRed Instrument in the starburst galaxy M 82. In particular, we focus on the depe…
