Deconvolution of JWST/MIRI Images: Applications to an AGN Model and GATOS Observations of NGC 5728

M. T. Leist, C. Packham, D. J. V. Rosario +32

The superb image quality, stability and sensitivity of the JWST permit deconvolution techniques to be pursued with a fidelity unavailable to ground-based observations. We present a…

BASS XLII: The relation between the covering factor of dusty gas and the Eddington ratio in nearby active galactic nuclei

C. Ricci, K. Ichikawa, M. Stalevski +25

Accreting supermassive black holes (SMBHs) located at the center of galaxies are typically surrounded by large quantities of gas and dust. The structure and evolution of this circu…

The Galaxy Activity, Torus, and Outflow Survey (GATOS). III: Revealing the inner icy structure in local AGN

I. García-Bernete, A. Alonso-Herrero, D. Rigopoulou +24

We use JWST/MIRI MRS spectroscopy of a sample of six local obscured type 1.9/2 active galactic nuclei (AGN) to compare their nuclear mid-IR absorption bands with the level of nucle…

The dusty heart of Circinus II. Scrutinizing the LM-band dust morphology using MATISSE

Jacob W. Isbell, Jörg-Uwe Pott, Klaus Meisenheimer +11

In this paper we present the first-ever - and -band interferometric observations of Circinus, building upon a recent -band analysis. We used these observations to reconstr…

The role of grain size in AGN torus dust models

Omaira González-Martín, Cristina Ramos Almeida, Jacopo Fritz +10

Fits the infrared spectra from the nuclear regions of AGN can place constraints on the dust properties, distribution, and geometry by comparison with models. However, none of the c…

X-ray radiative transfer in full 3D with SKIRT

Bert Vander Meulen, Peter Camps, Marko Stalevski +1

Models of active galactic nuclei (AGN) suggest that their circumnuclear media are complex with clumps and filaments, while recent observations hint towards polar extended structure…

Dissecting the active galactic nucleus in Circinus IV. MUSE NFM observations unveil a tuning-fork ionised gas morphology

D. Kakkad, M. Stalevski, M. Kishimoto +3

We present the ionised gas outflow morphology in the Circinus galaxy using the Narrow Field Mode (NFM) of the MUSE instrument on board the Very Large Telescope (VLT). The NFM obser…
