The Galactic Center as a Paradigm for Low Luminosity Nuclei? The K-band identification of the DSO/G2 source from VLT and Keck data
Andreas Eckart, S. Britzen, M. Horrobin +27
The super-massive 4 million solar mass black hole (SMBH) SgrA* shows flare emission from the millimeter to the X-ray domain. The nucleus of the Milky Way has properties (stellar cl…
A low-luminosity type-1 QSO sample: I. Overluminous host spheroidals or undermassive black holes?
Gerold Busch, Jens Zuther, Mónica Valencia-S. +6
Recognizing the properties of the host galaxies of quasi-stellar objects (QSOs) is essential to understand the suspected coevolution of central supermassive black holes (BHs) and t…
A low-redshift low luminosity QSO sample: Comparison with NUGA galaxies and PG QSOs and first interferometric images of three sample members
Lydia Moser, Jens Zuther, Sebastian Fischer +5
The low luminosity QSO (LLQSO) sample consists of type 1 active galactic nuclei (AGN) up to a redshift of z=0.06 in the Hamburg/ESO QSO survey. Its purpose is to study how the brig…
What produces the extended LINER-type emission in the NUGA galaxy NGC 5850?
Marcus Bremer, Julia Scharwächter, Andreas Eckart +5
(Abridged) The role of low ionization nuclear emission region (LINER) galaxies within the picture of active galactic nuclei (AGN) has been controversial. It is still not clear whet…
The central kpc of edge-on AGN
Semir Smajić, Sebastian Fischer, Jenz Zuther +2
The NIR is less influenced by dust extinction than optical light. This enables us to look to an extent through dusty regions. In addition, it is sensitive to the mass-dominating st…
Discovery of an Intermediate Mass Black Hole at the center of the starburst/Seyfert composite galaxy IRAS 01072+4954
M. Valencia-S., A. Eckart, J. Zuther +8
The starburst/Seyfert composite galaxy IRAS 01072+4954 (z=0.0236) is an enigmatic source that combines a Seyfert~1-like X-ray emission with a starburst optical spectrum that lacks…
