AGN Jets from Formation to Dissipation
Anne-Kathrin Baczko, A. -K. Baczko, Eleni Vardoulaki +27
Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) are among the most energetic phenomena in the Universe, capable of launching powerful relativistic jets that extend from sub-parsec to megaparsec scale…
VLTI/GRAVITY Interferometric Measurements of Innermost Dust Structure Sizes around AGNs
GRAVITY Collaboration, A. Amorim, G. Bourdarot +41
We present new VLTI/GRAVITY near-infrared interferometric measurements of the angular size of the innermost hot dust continuum for 14 type 1 AGNs. The angular sizes are resolved on…
The size-luminosity relation of local active galactic nuclei from interferometric observations of the broad-line region
GRAVITY Collaboration, A. Amorim, G. Bourdarot +42
By using the GRAVITY instrument with the near-infrared (NIR) Very Large Telescope Interferometer (VLTI), the structure of the broad (emission-)line region (BLR) in active galactic…
Towards measuring supermassive black hole masses with interferometric observations of the dust continuum
GRAVITY Collaboration, A. Amorim, G. Bourdarot +40
This work focuses on active galactic nuclei (AGNs), and the relation between the sizes of the hot dust continuum and the broad-line region (BLR). We find that the continuum size me…
A geometric distance to the supermassive black Hole of NGC 3783
GRAVITY Collaboration, A. Amorim, M. Bauböck +45
The angular size of the broad line region (BLR) of the nearby active galactic nucleus (AGN) NGC 3783 has been spatially resolved by recent observations with VLTI/GRAVITY. A reverbe…
The hot dust in the heart of NGC 1068's torus: A 3D radiative model constrained with GRAVITY/VLTi
Pierre Vermot, Yann Clénet, Damien Gratadour +5
The central region of NGC 1068 is one of the closest and most studied Active Galactic Nucleus. It is known to be of type 2, meaning that its accretion disk is obscured by a large a…
