AGN Feedback and the Development of Dusty Multiphase Gas in X-ray Emitting Elliptical Galaxies
Pasquale Temi, Francesco Ubertosi, Fabrizio Brighenti +9
This paper investigates the physical and kinematic properties of dust-rich regions in a small sample of group-centered elliptical galaxies, emphasizing their connection with the ho…
PDRs4All: XVIII. The evolution of the PAH ionisation and PAH size distribution across the Orion Bar
Alexandros Maragkoudakis, Christiaan Boersma, Els Peeters +25
We investigate the evolution of the PAH population's charge state and size across key physical zones in the Orion Bar, which include the HII region, the atomic PDR (APDR), and thre…
SPHEREx: Aromatics, Aliphatics and PAH Size across the Iris Nebula
Christiaan Boersma, Alexandros Maragkoudakis, Louis J. Allamandola +4
Observations by the SpectroPhotometer for the History of the Universe, Epoch of Reionization, and Ices Explorer (SPHEREx) are combined with Spitzer spectral map data to study the a…
PDRs4All XIX. The 6 to 9 m region as a probe of PAH charge and size in the Orion Bar
Baria Khan, Samuel A. Daza Rodriguez, Els Peeters +24
Infrared emission from polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) play a major role in determining the charge balance of their host environments that include photo-dissociation region…
PDRs4All XVI. Tracing aromatic infrared band characteristics in photodissociation region spectra with PAHFIT in the JWST era
Dries Van De Putte, Els Peeters, Karl D. Gordon +13
Photodissociation regions (PDRs) exhibit emission between 3-20 um known as the Aromatic Infrared Bands (AIBs), originating from small carbonaceous species such as polycyclic aromat…
A sensitivity analysis of the modeling of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon emission in galaxies
Alexandros Maragkoudakis, Christiaan Boersma, Pasquale Temi +5
We have conducted a sensitivity analysis on the mid-infrared spectral decomposition of galaxies and the modeling of the PAH emission spectrum with the NASA Ames PAH Infrared Spectr…
