Gemini NIFS survey of feeding and feedback processes in nearby Active Galaxies: II -The sample and surface mass density profiles
R. A. Riffel, T. Storchi-Bergmann, R. Riffel +10
We present and characterize a sample of 20 nearby Seyfert galaxies selected for having BAT 14--195keV luminosities erg s, redshift 0.015, being acc…
BAT AGN Spectroscopic Survey--VIII. Type 1 AGN With Massive Absorbing Columns
T. Taro Shimizu, Richard I. Davies, Michael Koss +12
We explore the relationship between X-ray absorption and optical obscuration within the BAT AGN Spectroscopic Survey (BASS) which has been collecting and analyzing the optical and…
LLAMA: Normal star formation efficiencies of molecular gas in the centres of luminous Seyfert galaxies
D. J. Rosario, L. Burtscher, R. I. Davies +23
Using new APEX and JCMT spectroscopy of the CO 2-1 line, we undertake a controlled study of cold molecular gas in moderately luminous Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) and inactive gala…
LLAMA: Nuclear stellar properties of Swift BAT AGN and matched inactive galaxies
Ming-Yi Lin, R. I. Davies, E. K. S. Hicks +20
In a complete sample of local 14-195 keV selected AGNs and inactive galaxies, matched by their host galaxy properties, we study the spatially resolved stellar kinematics and lumino…
Flame: A Flexible Data Reduction Pipeline for Near-Infrared and Optical Spectroscopy
Sirio Belli, Alessandra Contursi, Richard I. Davies
We present flame, a pipeline for reducing spectroscopic observations obtained with multi-slit near-infrared and optical instruments. Because of its flexible design, flame can be ea…
The life cycle of starbursting circumnuclear gas discs
M. Schartmann, J. Mould, K. Wada +5
High-resolution observations from the sub-mm to the optical wavelength regime resolve the central few 100pc region of nearby galaxies in great detail. They reveal a large diversity…
