Spatially Resolved Stellar Populations of Eight GOODS-South AGN at z~1
S. Mark Ammons, Jason Melbourne, Claire E. Max +2
We present a pilot study of the stellar populations of 8 AGN hosts at z~1 and compare to (1) lower redshift samples and (2) a sample of nonactive galaxies of similar redshift. We u…
Inspiralling Supermassive Black Holes: A New Signpost for Galaxy Mergers
Julia M. Comerford, Brian F. Gerke, Jeffrey A. Newman +8
We present a new technique for observationally identifying galaxy mergers spectroscopically rather than through host galaxy imaging. Our technique exploits the dynamics of supermas…
HST/STIS spectroscopy of the environment in the starburst core of M82
M. S. Westmoquette, L. J. Smith, J. S. Gallagher +3
[Abridged] We present high-resolution optical HST/STIS observations made with two slits crossing four of the brightest starburst clumps in the vicinity of the nucleus of M82. These…
Ionization Mechanisms in Jet-Dominated Seyferts: A Detailed Case Study
D. J. Rosario, M. Whittle, J. D. Silverman +2
For the past 10 years there has been an active debate over whether fast shocks play an important role in ionizing emission line regions in Seyfert galaxies. To investigate this cla…
