GATOS. VIII. On the physical origin of the extended MIR emission in AGN

Enrique Lopez-Rodriguez, Cristina Ramos Almeida, Miguel Pereira-Santaella +31

The polar mid-infrared (MIR) emission detected within 10-100s pcs in some active galactic nuclei (AGN) has been associated with dusty winds driven away by radiation pressure. The p…

Towards an observationally motivated AGN dusty torus model -- II. The roles of density distribution and chemical composition of the dust

Omar Ulises Reyes-Amador, Omaira González-Martín, Jacopo Fritz +5

Several models of nuclear dust in active galactic nuclei (AGN) have been presented in the literature to determine its physical and geometrical properties, usually assuming the dust…

A Massive Gas Outflow Outside the Line-of-Sight: Imaging Polarimetry of the Blue Excess Hot Dust Obscured Galaxy W0204-0506

Roberto J. Assef, Marko Stalevski, Lee Armus +18

(Aims) Hot Dust Obscured Galaxies (Hot DOGs) are a population of hyper-luminous, heavily obscured quasars. Although nuclear obscurations close to Compton-thick are typical, a fract…

JWST reveals the diversity of nuclear obscuring dust in nearby AGN: nuclear isolation of MIRI/MRS datacubes and continuum spectral fitting

Omaira González-Martín, Daniel J. Díaz-González, Mariela Martínez-Paredes +22

We investigate the capabilities of the mid-infrared instrument (MIRI) of James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) to advance our knowledge of AGN dust using the spectral fitting technique…

Assessing differences between local galaxy dust attenuation and point source extinction within the same environments

J. Duarte, S. González-Gaitán, A. Mourão +5

Dust attenuation in galaxies has often been used as a proxy for the extinction of point sources, such as supernovae, even though this approach ignores fundamental differences betwe…

Direct imaging of AGN outflows and their origin with the 23 m Large Binocular Telescope

Jacob W. Isbell, Steve Ertel, Jörg-Uwe Pott +17

Active galactic nuclei (AGNs) are a key component of galaxy evolution due to feedback on the host from its supermassive black hole. The morphology of warm, in- and outflowing dusty…
