Parsec-scale dust emission from the polar region in the type 2 nucleus of NGC 424

Sebastian F. Hoenig, Makoto Kishimoto, Robert Antonucci +4

Advancements in infrared IR open up the possibility to spatially resolve AGN on the parsec-scale level and study the circumnuclear dust distribution, commonly referred to as the "d…

The Lick AGN Monitoring Project 2011: Dynamical Modeling of the Broad Line Region in Mrk 50

Anna Pancoast, Brendon J. Brewer, Tommaso Treu +33

We present dynamical modeling of the broad line region (BLR) in the Seyfert 1 galaxy Mrk 50 using reverberation mapping data taken as part of the Lick AGN Monitoring Project (LAMP)…

VLTI/AMBER observations of the Seyfert nucleus of NGC 3783

G. Weigelt, K. -H. Hofmann, M. Kishimoto +9

Context. The putative tori surrounding the accretion disks of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) play a fundamental role in the unification scheme of AGNs. Infrared long-baseline interf…

Probing the innermost dusty structure in AGN with mid-IR and near-IR interferometers

Makoto Kishimoto, Sebastian F. Hoenig, Robert Antonucci +5

With mid-IR and near-IR long-baseline interferometers, we are now mapping the radial distribution of the dusty accreting material in AGNs at sub-pc scales. We currently focus on Ty…

Imaging the heart of astrophysical objects with optical long-baseline interferometry

J. -P. Berger, F. Malbet, F. Baron +21

The number of publications of aperture-synthesis images based on optical long-baseline interferometry measurements has recently increased due to easier access to visible and infrar…

The complexity of parsec-scaled dusty tori in AGN

K. R. W. Tristram, M. Schartmann, L. Burtscher +5

Warm gas and dust surround the innermost regions of active galactic nuclei (AGN). They provide the material for accretion onto the super-massive black hole and they are held respon…
