The subarcsecond mid-infrared view of local active galactic nuclei: I. The N- and Q-band imaging atlas

D. Asmus, S. F. Hönig, P. Gandhi +2

We present the first subarcsecond-resolution mid-infrared (MIR) atlas of local active galactic nuclei (AGN). Our atlas contains 253 AGN with a median redshift of z=0.016, and inclu…

Dust in the polar region as a major contributor to the IR emission of AGN

Sebastian F. Hoenig, Makoto Kishimoto, Konrad R. W. Tristram +7

(abridged) It is generally assumed that the distribution of dust on parsec scales forms a geometrically- and optically-thick entity in the equatorial plane around the accretion dis…

The largest mid-infrared atlas of active galactic nuclei at sub-arcsecond spatial scales

D. Asmus, P. Gandhi, S. F. Hoenig +1

We present the largest mid-infrared atlas of active galactic nuclei at sub-arcsecond spatial scales containing 249 objects. It comprises all ground-based HR MIR observations perfor…

Nuclear mid-infrared properties of nearby low-luminosity AGN

D. Asmus, S. F. Hönig, P. Gandhi +2

We present ground-based high-spatial resolution mid-infrared (MIR) observations of 20 nearby low-luminosity AGN (LLAGN) with VLT/VISIR and the preliminary analysis of a new sample…

The dusty heart of nearby active galaxies. I. High-spatial resolution mid-IR spectro-photometry of Seyfert galaxies

S. F. Hoenig, M. Kishimoto, P. Gandhi +5

We present 8-13 micron imaging and spectroscopy of 9 type 1 and 10 type 2 AGN obtained with the VLT/VISIR instrument at spatial resolution <100 pc. The emission from the host galax…
