The properties of the AGN torus as revealed from a set of unbiased NuSTAR observations
X. Zhao, S. Marchesi, M. Ajello +4
The obscuration observed in active galactic nuclei (AGN) is mainly caused by dust and gas distributed in a torus-like structure surrounding the supermassive black hole (SMBH). Howe…
The tilting rate of the Milky Way's disc
Samuel W. F. Earp, Victor P. Debattista, Andrea V. Macciò +1
We present tilting rates for galaxies comparable to the Milky Way (MW) in a cold dark matter cosmological hydrodynamical simulation, and compare these with the predicted tiltin…
The kinematics of σ-drop bulges from spectral synthesis modelling of a hydrodynamical simulation
Elisa Portaluri, Victor P. Debattista, Maximillian Fabricius +7
A minimum in stellar velocity dispersion is often observed in the central regions of disc galaxies. To investigate the origin of this feature, known as a σ-drop, we analyse the ste…
A centrally heated dark halo for our Galaxy
David R. Cole, James Binney
We construct a new family of models of our Galaxy in which dark matter and disc stars are both represented by distribution functions that are analytic functions of the action integ…
Spatial and kinematic segregation in star cluster merger remnants
David R. Cole, Victor P. Debattista, Anna Lisa Varri +2
Globular clusters which exhibit chemical and dynamical complexity have been suggested to be the stripped nuclei of dwarf galaxies (e.g., M54, Cen). We use -body simulations…
A Kiloparsec-Scale Nuclear Stellar Disk in the Milky Way as a Possible Explanation of the High Velocity Peaks in the Galactic Bulge
Victor P. Debattista, Melissa Ness, Samuel W. F. Earp +1
The Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment has measured the stellar velocities of red giant stars in the inner Milky Way. We confirm that the line of sight velocity…
