BASS.L. Near-infrared Data Release 3: A Spectral Atlas and Characterization of AGN
Jarred Gillette, Michael J. Koss, Darshan Kakkad +18
We present an analysis of near-infrared (NIR) emission-line properties, AGN diagnostics, and circumnuclear gas dynamics for 453 hard X-ray selected (14195 keV) AGN from the BAT…
Molecular Gas in Major Mergers Hosting Dual and Single AGN at <10 kpc Nuclear Separations
Makoto A. Johnstone, Ezequiel Treister, Franz E. Bauer +24
We present high-resolution (50100 pc) Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA) observations of CO(2-1) or CO(1-0) emission in seven local ( 0.05)…
BASS LIV. Physical Properties of AGN-Hosting Galaxy Mergers from Multiwavelength SED Fitting
Marco Troncoso, Ezequiel Treister, Alejandra Rojas +17
Galaxy mergers are believed to play an important role in triggering rapid supermassive black hole (SMBH) growth. As merging nuclei approach each other, the physical properties of t…
BASS LII: The prevalence of double-peaked broad lines at low accretion rates among hard X-ray selected AGN
Charlotte Ward, Michael J. Koss, Michael Eracleous +18
A fraction of active galactic nuclei (AGN) have double-peaked H, H and Mg II broad lines attributed to emission from rotating gas in the accretion disk. Using optical spect…
BASS LIII: The Eddington Ratio as the Primary Regulator of the Fraction of X-ray Emission in Active Galactic Nuclei
Kriti Kamal Gupta, Claudio Ricci, Alessia Tortosa +20
Active galactic nuclei (AGN) emit radiation via accretion across the entire energy spectrum. While the standard disk and corona model can somewhat describe this emission, it fails…
BASS. XLIV. Morphological preferences of local hard X-ray selected AGN
Miguel Parra Tello, Franz E. Bauer, Demetra De Cicco +20
We present morphological classifications for the hosts of 1189 hard X-ray selected (14-195 keV) active galactic nuclei (AGNs) from the Swift-BAT 105-month catalog as part of the BA…
