Jet-driven shocks and turbulence in radio-loud Active Galactic Nuclei observed with JWST MIRI/MRS

Rogemar A. Riffel, Gabriel L. Souza-Oliveira, Luis Colina +34

Jet-cloud interactions are a key manifestation of Active Galactic Nucleus (AGN) feedback on nuclear scales, distinct from the large-scale radio-mode feedback that suppresses gas co…

Decoupling the AGN outflow and star-forming disk kinematics in the nuclear region of NGC 7582 with JWST NIRSpec and MIRI/MRS

Oscar Veenema, Niranjan Thatte, Dimitra Rigopoulou +24

We present a detailed study of the inner regions of NGC~7582, a nearby Seyfert~2 galaxy, from the Galaxy Activity, Torus and Outflow Survey (GATOS). The galaxy hosts a circumnuclea…

The Galaxy Activity, Torus, and outflow Survey (GATOS) XIII: Coupling Driven H2 Excitation in Seyferts

Daniel E. Delaney, Erin K. S. Hicks, Lulu Zhang +31

We utilize JWST/MIRI IFU observations from the Galaxy Activity, Torus and Outflow Survey (GATOS) to investigate the diverse range of ionized outflow rates of obscured AGN with simi…

The Role of Baryonic and Dark Matter in Bar Kinematics

Tobias Géron, Kai Zhu, Steph Campbell +3

Simulations predict that bars in galaxies should slow down over time. This is often attributed to the exchange of angular momentum between the bar and other regions of the galaxy,…

GATOS XIV: The first direct kinematic evidence of dusty outflows from AGN via PAH kinematics of local Seyfert galaxies with JWST

Fergus R. Donnan, Ismael García-Bernete, Dimitra Rigopoulou +30

We present the first spatially resolved kinematic evidence for dust in the outflows of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN). We utilise observations from JWST with NIRSpec IFU and MIRI MRS…

Impact of AGN and nuclear star formation on the ISM turbulence of galaxies: Insights from JWST/MIRI spectroscopy

Rogemar A. Riffel, Luis Colina, José Henrique Costa-Souza +31

Active galactic nuclei (AGN), star formation (SF), and galaxy interactions can drive turbulence in the gas of the ISM, which in turn plays a role in the SF within galaxies. The imp…

GATOS. VIII. On the physical origin of the extended MIR emission in AGN

Enrique Lopez-Rodriguez, Cristina Ramos Almeida, Miguel Pereira-Santaella +31

The polar mid-infrared (MIR) emission detected within 10-100s pcs in some active galactic nuclei (AGN) has been associated with dusty winds driven away by radiation pressure. The p…
