Compact near infrared sources in the center of the extraordinary galaxy IC 860

J. S. Gallagher, L. Schisgal, G. C. Privon +7

Hubble Space Telescope (HST) images are used to study the structure of the central regions of the luminous infrared galaxy (LIRG) IC 860. IC 860 is of special interest as a system…

High resolution ALMA observations of HS in LIRGS (Dense gas and shocks in outflows and CNDs)

M. T. Sato, S. Aalto, S. König +14

Molecular gas plays a critical role in regulating star formation and nuclear activity in galaxies. Sulphur bearing molecules, such as H2S, are sensitive to the physical and chemica…

Searching for Compact Obscured Nuclei in Compton Thick AGN

Makoto A. Johnstone, George C. Privon, Loreto Barcos-Munoz +16

Compact Obscured Nuclei (CONs) are heavily obscured infrared cores that have been found in local (ultra)luminous infrared galaxies (U/LIRGs). They show bright emission from vibrati…

A Search for 3-mm Molecular Absorption Line Transitions in the Magellanic Stream

Lucille Steffes, Daniel R. Rybarczyk, Snežana Stanimirović +14

The Magellanic Stream, a tidal tail of diffuse gas falling onto the Milky Way, formed by interactions between the Small and Large Magellanic Clouds, is primarily composed of neutra…

LeMMINGs. Multi-wavelength constraints on the co-existence of nuclear star clusters and AGN in nucleated galaxies

B. T. Dullo, J. H. Knapen, R. D. Baldi +16

[Abridged] The relation between nuclear star clusters (NSCs) and the growth of the central SMBHs, as well as their connection to the properties of the host galaxies, is crucial for…

An Imaging and Spectroscopic Exploration of the Dusty Compact Obscured Nucleus Galaxy Zw~049.057

J. S. Gallagher, R. Kotulla, L. Laufman +9

Zw~049.057 is a moderate mass, dusty, early-type galaxy that hosts a powerful compact obscured nucleus (CON, L10~L). The resolution of HST enabled…

The fountain of the luminous infrared galaxy Zw049.057 as traced by its OH megamaser

Boy Lankhaar, Susanne Aalto, Clare Wethers +15

High resolution (0."037-0."13 [10-35 pc]) e-MERLIN ( cm) and (0."024 [6.5 pc]) ALMA ( mm) observations have been used to image OH (hydroxyl) and HCO (formald…

A spectacular galactic scale magnetohydrodynamic powered wind in ESO 320-G030

M. D. Gorski, S. Aalto, S. König +23

How galaxies regulate nuclear growth through gas accretion by supermassive black holes (SMBHs) is one of the most fundamental questions in galaxy evolution. One potential way to re…

Double, double, toil, and trouble: The tails, bubbles, and knots of the local compact obscured nucleus galaxy NGC4418

C. F. Wethers, S. Aalto, G. C. Privon +20

Compact obscured nuclei (CONs) are an extremely obscured (N >10 cm) class of galaxy nuclei thought to exist in 20-40 per cent of nearby (ultra-)luminous infrar…

CON-quest II. Spatially and spectrally resolved HCN/HCO+ line ratios in local luminous and ultraluminous infrared galaxies

Y. Nishimura, S. Aalto, M. D. Gorski +24

Nuclear regions of ultraluminous and luminous infrared galaxies (U/LIRGs) are powered by starbursts and/or active galactic nuclei (AGNs). These regions are often obscured by extrem…

Large-Scale Features of the CON Galaxy NGC4418 with MUSE

C. F. Wethers, S. Aalto, G. C. Privon +6

Compact obscured nuclei (CONs) are relatively common in the centers of local (U)LIRGs, yet their nature remains unknown. Both AGN activity and extreme nuclear starbursts have been…

Subarcsecond international LOFAR radio images of Arp 220 at 150 MHz: A kpc-scale star forming disk surrounding nuclei with shocked outflows

E. Varenius, J. E. Conway, I. Martí-Vidal +16

We analyse new observations with the International Low Frequency Array (LOFAR) telescope, and archival data from the Multi-Element Radio Linked Interferometer Network (MERLIN) and…
