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…
Fornax 3D project: assessing the diversity of IMF and stellar population maps within the Fornax Cluster
I. Martín-Navarro, F. Pinna, L. Coccato +14
The stellar initial mass function (IMF) is central to our interpretation of astronomical observables and to our understanding of most baryonic processes within galaxies. The univer…
The Fornax3D project: Planetary nebulae catalogue and independent distance measurements to Fornax cluster galaxies
T. W. Spriggs, M. Sarz, P. M. Galán-de Anta +17
Extragalactic planetary nebulae (PNe) offer a way to determine the distance to their host galaxies thanks to the nearly universal shape of the planetary nebulae luminosity function…
The Fornax 3D project: PNe populations and stellar metallicity in edge-on galaxies
P. M. Galán-de Anta, M. Sarzi, T. W. Spriggs +17
Context. Extragalactic Planetary Nebulae (PNe) are useful distance indicators and are often used to trace the dark-matter content in external galaxies. At the same time, PNe can al…
Improved GRAVITY astrometric accuracy from modeling of optical aberrations
GRAVITY Collaboration, R. Abuter, A. Amorim +60
The GRAVITY instrument on the ESO VLTI pioneers the field of high-precision near-infrared interferometry by providing astrometry at the as level. Measurements at such…
