A Supermassive Black Hole Mass Measurement in NGC 5102 with Schwarzschild Orbit-superposition Modeling
Thomas K. Waters, Kayhan Gultekin, Karl Gebhardt +2
We present a stellar-dynamical mass measurement of the central black hole in the lenticular galaxy NGC~5102 (SA0). Our analysis combines high-quality integral-field spectroscop…
Understanding Balmer Decrements in T Tauri stars in terms of Multiflow Magnetospheric Accretion
Naiara Patiño, Nuria Calvet, Gladis Magris +4
Magnetospheric accretion is the paradigm for accretion in Classical T-Tauri Stars (CTTS). However, the standard, one-flow magnetospheric accretion model fails to replicate importan…
A Stellar Dynamical Mass Measurement of the Supermassive Black Hole in NGC 3258
Thomas K. Waters, Kayhan Gültekin, Karl Gebhardt +2
We present a stellar dynamical mass measurement of the supermassive black hole in the elliptical (E1) galaxy NGC 3258. Our findings are based on integral field unit spectroscopy fr…
Gas Morphology of Milky Way-like Galaxies in the TNG50 Simulation: Signals of Twisting and Stretching
Thomas K. Waters, Colton Peterson, Razieh Emami +9
We present an in-depth analysis of gas morphologies for a sample of 25 Milky Way-like galaxies from the IllustrisTNG TNG50 simulation. We constrain the morphology of cold, warm, ho…
