Three Dimensional Line Transfer Study of Energy Sources in Compact Molecular Gas in Active Galaxies -- AGN/Starburst Connection --

Masako Yamada, Wada Keiichi, Kohji Tomisaka

Recent observations suggest molecular line ratios in millimeter and submillimeter bands may be a good tool to reveal the long-standing question on the origin of energy sources in o…

Three Dimensional Molecular Line Transfer Study of Extragalactic ISM : AGN/Starburst Connection

Masako Yamada

Molecular gas in external galaxies is a subject of crucial importance for observational and theoretical studies of galaxy formation. Compact molecular gas around an active galactic…

HCN to HCO^+ Millimeter Line Diagnostics of AGN Molecular Torus I : Radiative Transfer Modeling

Masako Yamada, Keiichi Wada, Kohji Tomisaka

We explore millimeter line diagnostics of an obscuring molecular torus modeled by a hydrodynamic simulation with three-dimensional nonLTE radiative transfer calculations. Based on…

Synthetic Observations of Carbon Lines of Turbulent Flows in Diffuse Multiphase Interstellar Medium

M. Yamada, H. Koyama, K. Omukai +1

We examine observational characteristics of multi-phase turbulent flows in the diffuse interstellar medium (ISM) using a synthetic radiation field of atomic and molecular lines. We…

Heating of Intracluster Gas by Jet Activities of AGN: Is the "Preheating" Scenario Realistic?

Masako Yamada, Yutaka Fujita

We investigate the non-gravitational heating of hot gas in clusters of galaxies (intracluster medium; ICM) on the assumption that the gas is heated well before cluster formation ('…

The Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect by Cocoons of Radio Galaxies

Masako Yamada, Naoshi Sugiyama, Joseph Silk

We estimate the deformation of the cosmic microwave background radiation by the hot region (``cocoon'') around a radio galaxy. A simple model is adopted for cocoon evolution while…
