Cross-checking SMBH mass estimates in NGC 6958 -- I: Stellar dynamics from adaptive optics-assisted MUSE observations
Sabine Thater, Davor Krajnović, Peter M. Weilbacher +9
Supermassive black hole masses (MBH) can dynamically be estimated with various methods and using different kinematic tracers. Different methods have only been cross-checked for a s…
Hard X-ray Irradiation Potentially Drives Negative AGN Feedback by Altering Molecular Gas Properties
Taiki Kawamuro, Claudio Ricci, Takuma Izumi +4
To investigate the role of active galactic nucleus (AGN) X-ray irradiation on the interstellar medium (ISM), we systematically analyzed Chandra and ALMA CO(=2-1) data for 26 ult…
Discovery of Methanimine Megamasers Toward Compact Obscured Galaxy Nuclei
Mark Gorski, Susanne Aalto, Jeffrey Mangum +8
We present the first search for the 5.29 GHz methanimine() transition toward a sample of galaxy nuclei. We target seven galaxies that host Compact…
WISDOM Project -- IX Giant Molecular Clouds in the Lenticular Galaxy NGC4429: Effects of Shear and Tidal Forces on Clouds
Lijie Liu, Martin Bureau, Leo Blitz +5
We present high spatial resolution (12pc) Atacama Large Millimeter/sub-millimeter Array CO(J=3-2) observations of the nearby lenticular galaxy NGC4429. We identify 217 giant molecu…
WISDOM project -- VIII. Multi-scale feedback cycles in the brightest cluster galaxy NGC 0708
Eve V. North, Timothy A. Davis, Martin Bureau +8
We present high-resolution (synthesised beam size 0."088x0."083 or 25x23 pc) Atacama Large Millimetre/submillimetre Array (ALMA) CO(2-1) line and 236 GHz continuum obser…
WISDOM Project -- VII. Molecular gas measurement of the supermassive black hole mass in NGC 7052
Mark D. Smith, Martin Bureau, Timothy A. Davis +7
Supermassive black hole (SMBH) masses can be measured by resolving the dynamical influences of the SMBHs on spatially-resolved tracers of the central potentials. Modern long-baseli…
CON-quest: Searching for the most obscured galaxy nuclei
N. Falstad, S. Aalto, S. König +28
Some luminous and ultraluminous infrared galaxies (LIRGs and ULIRGs) host extremely compact and dusty nuclei. The intense infrared radiation arising from warm dust in these sources…
