Investigating solid-state CH3OH formation with chemical modelling
K. -Y. Huang, E. Méndez-Robayo, S. Viti +1
Context. Recent Monte Carlo simulations and laboratory studies of interstellar ices have proposed an alternative pathway involving the radical-molecule H-atom abstraction reaction…
Investigating the chemical link between HCO and CHOH within the CMZ of NGC 253
K. -Y. Huang, E. Behrens, M. Bouvier +3
Formaldehyde (HCO) and methanol (CHOH) have served as traditional tracers of the star formation process for decades. Studies of the environments which produce these species…
An ALCHEMI inspection of sulphur-bearing species towards the central molecular zone of NGC 253
M. Bouvier, S. Viti, E. Behrens +19
Sulphur-bearing species are detected in various environments within Galactic star-forming regions and are particularly abundant in the gas phase of outflows and shocks, and photo-d…
High-energy neutrinos from the vicinity of the supermassive black hole in NGC 1068
P. Padovani, E. Resconi, M. Ajello +12
We present a comprehensive multi-messenger study of NGC 1068, the prototype Seyfert II galaxy recently associated with high-energy IceCube neutrinos. Various aspects of the source,…
Multi-transition study of methanol towards NGC 1068 with ALMA
K. -Y. Huang, D. Abbink, S. Viti +1
The outflowing molecular gas in the circumnuclear disk (CND) of the nearby (D=14 Mpc) AGN-starburst composite galaxy NGC 1068 is considered as a manifestation of ongoing AGN feedba…
Molecular isotopologue measurements toward super star clusters and the relation to their ages in NGC253 with ALCHEMI
J. Butterworth, S. Viti, P. P. Van der Werf +18
Determining the evolution of the CNO isotopes in the interstellar medium (ISM) of starburst galaxies can yield important constraints on the ages of superstar clusters (SSCs), or on…
Reconstructing the shock history in the CMZ of NGC 253 with ALCHEMI
K. -Y. Huang, S. Viti, J. Holdship +19
HNCO and SiO are well known shock tracers and have been observed in nearby galaxies, including the nearby (D=3.5 Mpc) starburst galaxy NGC 253. The simultaneous detection of these…
Methanol masers in NGC 253 with ALCHEMI
P. K. Humire, C. Henkel, A. Hernández-Gómez +23
Context: Methanol masers of Class I (collisionally-pumped) and Class II (radiatively-pumped) have been studied in great detail in our Galaxy in a variety of astrophysical environme…
The chemical footprint of AGN feedback in the outflowing circumnuclear disk of NGC 1068
K. -Y. Huang, S. Viti, J. Holdship +7
In the nearby (D=14 Mpc) AGN-starburst composite galaxy NGC 1068, it has been found that the molecular gas in the Circum-nuclear Disk (CND) is outflowing, which is a manifestation…
The optical rebrightening of GRB100814A: an interplay of forward and reverse shocks?
Massimiliano De Pasquale, N. P. M. Kuin, S. Oates +36
We present a wide dataset of gamma-ray, X-ray, UVOIR, and radio observations of the Swift GRB100814A. At the end of the slow decline phase of the X-ray and optical afterglow, this…
The GRB 071112C: A Case Study of Different Mechanisms in X-ray and Optical Temporal Evolution
K. Y. Huang, Y. Urata, Y. H. Tung +19
We present the study on GRB 071112C X-ray and optical light curves. In these two wavelength ranges, we have found different temporal properties. The R-band light curve showed an in…
Panchromatic observations of the textbook GRB 110205A: constraining physical mechanisms of prompt emission and afterglow
W. Zheng, R. F. Shen, T. Sakamoto +56
We present a comprehensive analysis of a bright, long duration (T90 ~ 257 s) GRB 110205A at redshift z= 2.22. The optical prompt emission was detected by Swift/UVOT, ROTSE-IIIb and…
Discovery of the Onset of Rapid Accretion by a Dormant Massive Black Hole
D. N. Burrows, J. A. Kennea, G. Ghisellini +53
Massive black holes are believed to reside at the centres of most galaxies. They can be- come detectable by accretion of matter, either continuously from a large gas reservoir or i…
Ultra-bright optical transients are linked with type Ic supernovae
A. Pastorello, S. J. Smartt, M. T. Botticella +41
Recent searches by unbiased, wide-field surveys have uncovered a group of extremely luminous optical transients. The initial discoveries of SN 2005ap by the Texas Supernova Search…
