Thermal imaging of dust hiding the black hole in the Active Galaxy NGC 1068
Violeta Gamez Rosas, Jacob W. Isbell, Walter Jaffe +49
In the widely accepted 'Unified Model' solution of the classification puzzle of Active Galactic Nuclei, the orientation of a dusty accretion torus around the central black hole dom…
The mass distribution in the Galactic Centre from interferometric astrometry of multiple stellar orbits
GRAVITY Collaboration, R. Abuter, N. Aimar +62
The stars orbiting the compact radio source Sgr A* in the Galactic Centre are precision probes of the gravitational field around the closest massive black hole. In addition to adap…
Deep Images of the Galactic Center with GRAVITY
GRAVITY Collaboration, R. Abuter, N. Aimar +65
Stellar orbits at the Galactic Center provide a very clean probe of the gravitational potential of the supermassive black hole. They can be studied with unique precision, beyond th…
A geometric distance to the supermassive black Hole of NGC 3783
GRAVITY Collaboration, A. Amorim, M. Bauböck +45
The angular size of the broad line region (BLR) of the nearby active galactic nucleus (AGN) NGC 3783 has been spatially resolved by recent observations with VLTI/GRAVITY. A reverbe…
Resolving the Hot Dust Disk of ESO323-G77
James H. Leftley, Konrad R. W. Tristram, Sebastian F. Hönig +3
Infrared interferometry has fuelled a paradigm shift in our understanding of the dusty structure in the central parsecs of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN). The dust is now thought to…
The central parsec of NGC 3783: a rotating broad emission line region, asymmetric hot dust structure, and compact coronal line region
GRAVITY Collaboration, A. Amorim, M. Bauböck +47
Using VLTI/GRAVITY and SINFONI data, we investigate the sub-pc gas and dust structure around the nearby type 1 AGN hosted by NGC 3783. The K-band coverage of GRAVITY uniquely allow…
