Clear evidence for the early triggering of a luminous quasar-like AGN in a major, gas rich merger
Patricia S. Bessiere, Clive N. Tadhunter, Cristina Ramos Almeida +1
We present deep, intermediate resolution, long slit Gemini GMOS-S optical spectra of the SDSS type II quasar J002531-104022, which is a highly disturbed system currently undergoing…
The location and impact of jet-driven outflows of cold gas: the case of 3C293
Elizabeth Mahony, Raffaella Morganti, Bjorn Emonts +2
The nearby radio galaxy 3C293 is one of a small group of objects where extreme outflows of neutral hydrogen have been detected. However, due to the limited spatial resolution of pr…
On the nature of the red, 2MASS selected AGN in the local Universe I: an optical spectroscopic study
Marvin Rose, Clive Tadhunter, Joanna Holt +1
We present optical spectra for a representative sample of 27 nearby (z < 0.2) 2MASS-selected AGN with red near-IR colours (J-K 2.0). The spectra were taken with the ISIS spectrogra…
The importance of warm, AGN-driven outflows in the nuclear regions of nearby ULIRGs
J. Rodriguez Zaurin, C. N. Tadhunter, M. Rose +1
We present an optical spectroscopic study of a 90% complete sample of 17 nearby ULIRGs with optical Seyfert nuclei, with the aim of investigating the nature of the nuclear warm gas…
Tracing the extreme interplay between radio jets and the ISM in IC5063
Raffaella Morganti, Wilfred Frieswijk, Raymond J. B. Oonk +2
We report the discovery with the Atacama Pathfinder EXperiment (APEX) of an outflow of molecular gas in the radio-loud Seyfert galaxy IC5063 (z = 0.0110). In addition to the emissi…
CO(1-0) detection of molecular gas in the massive Spiderweb Galaxy (z=2)
B. H. C. Emonts, I. Feain, H. J. A. Roettgering +13
The high-redshift radio galaxy MRC 1138-262 (`Spiderweb Galaxy'; z = 2.16), is one of the most massive systems in the early Universe and surrounded by a dense `web' of proto-cluste…
