Molecular gas stratification and disturbed kinematics in the Seyfert galaxy MCG-05-23-16 revealed by JWST and ALMA

D. Esparza-Arredondo, C. Ramos Almeida, A. Audibert +30

Understanding the processes that drive the morphology and kinematics of molecular gas in galaxies is crucial for comprehending star formation and, ultimately, galaxy evolution. Usi…

Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Emission in the Central Regions of Three Seyferts the Implication for Underlying Feedback Mechanisms

Lulu Zhang, Ismael García-Bernete, Chris Packham +29

We analyze JWST MIRI/MRS IFU observations of three Seyferts and showcase the intriguing polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) emission characteristics in regions of $\sim 500\,\rm…

The Galaxy Activity, Torus, and Outflow Survey (GATOS). (IV): Exploring Ionized Gas Outflows in Central Kiloparsec Regions of GATOS Seyferts

Lulu Zhang, Chris Packham, Erin K. S. Hicks +33

Utilizing JWST MIRI/MRS IFU observations of the kiloparsec scale central regions, we showcase the diversity of ionized gas distributions and kinematics in six nearby Seyfert galaxi…

The Galaxy Activity, Torus, and Outflow Survey (GATOS). V: Unveiling PAH survival and resilience in the circumnuclear regions of AGN with JWST

I. García-Bernete, D. Rigopoulou, F. R. Donnan +30

We analyze JWST MIRI/MRS observations of the infrared PAH bands in the nuclear and circumnuclear regions of local AGN from the GATOS Survey. In this work, we examine the PAH proper…

X-ray polarisation in AGN circumnuclear media. Polarisation framework and 2D torus models

Bert Vander Meulen, Peter Camps, Djordje Savic +3

Cold gas and dust reprocess the X-ray emission of active galactic nuclei (AGN), producing spectro-polarimetric features in the X-ray band. The recent launch of IXPE allows for obse…

A biconical ionised gas outflow and evidence for positive feedback in NGC 7172 uncovered by MIRI/JWST

L. Hermosa Muñoz, A. Alonso-Herrero, M. Pereira-Santaella +35

We present observations of the type-2 Seyfert NGC7172 obtained with the medium-resolution spectrometer (MRS) of the Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) on board of the JWST. This galaxy…

GATOS: missing molecular gas in the outflow of NGC5728 revealed by JWST

R. Davies, T. Shimizu, M. Pereira-Santaella +49

The ionisation cones of NGC5728 have a deficit of molecular gas based on millimetre observations of CO(2-1) emission. Although photoionisation from the active nucleus may lead to s…

Deciphering the imprint of AGN feedback in Seyfert galaxies: Nuclear-scale molecular gas deficits

S. García-Burillo, E. K. S. Hicks, A. Alonso-Herrero +26

We use a sample of 64 nearby (D=7-45 Mpc) disk galaxies including 45 AGN and 19 non-AGN, that have high spatial resolution multiline CO observations obtained with the ALMA and/or P…

AGNfitter-rx: Modelling the radio-to-X-ray SEDs of AGNs

L. N. Martínez-Ramírez, G. Calistro Rivera, Elisabeta Lusso +9

We present new frontiers in the modelling of the spectral energy distributions (SED) of active galaxies by introducing the radio-to-X-ray fitting capabilities of the publicly avail…

Towards an observationally motivated AGN dusty torus model. I. Dust chemical composition from the modeling of Spitzer spectra

Omar Ulises Reyes-Amador, Jacopo Fritz, Omaira González-Martín +7

Spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting is one of most commonly used techniques to study the dust properties in Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN). Works implementing this technique c…

Dust beyond the torus: Revealing the mid-infrared heart of local Seyfert ESO 428-G14 with JWST/MIRI

Houda Haidar, David J. Rosario, Almudena Alonso-Herrero +34

Polar dust has been discovered in a number of local Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), with radiation-driven torus models predicting a wind to be its main driver. However, little is kno…
