Active Dwarf Galaxy Database II: Connections between Host Galaxy Properties and Black Hole Accretion Signatures
Erik J. Wasleske, Vivienne F. Baldassare, Christopher M. Carroll
We investigate the connection between accretion signatures and host galaxy properties in the context of how active dwarf galaxies are identified. We use the database constructed in…
Central Massive Black Holes Are Not Ubiquitous in Local Low-Mass Galaxies
Fan Zou, Elena Gallo, Anil C. Seth +13
The black-hole occupation fraction () defines the fraction of galaxies that harbor central massive black holes (MBHs), irrespective of their accretion activity leve…
A JWST View of the Overmassive Black Hole in NGC 4486B
Behzad Tahmasebzadeh, Matthew A. Taylor, Monica Valluri +19
We present a new stellar dynamical measurement of the supermassive black hole (SMBH) in the compact elliptical galaxy NGC 4486B, based on integral field spectroscopy with JWST/NIRS…
A Large-Scale Search for Photometrically Variable AGNs in Dwarf Galaxies Using the Young Supernova Experiment
Alexander Messick, Vivienne Baldassare, David O. Jones +12
We conduct an analysis of over 60,000 dwarf galaxies (7<=log(M_*/M_\odot)<=10) in search of photometric variability indicative of active galactic nuclei (AGNs). Using data from the…
A Supermassive Black Hole in a Diminutive Ultra-compact Dwarf Galaxy Discovered with JWST/NIRSpec+IFU
Matthew A. Taylor, Behzad Tahmasebzadeh, Solveig Thompson +18
The integral-field unit mode of the Near-Infrared Spectrograph (NIRSpec+IFU) mounted on the James Webb Space Telescope has now enabled kinematic studies of smaller and less massive…
The Morphology of Dwarf Galaxies Hosting Variable Active Galactic Nuclei
Erin Kimbro, Vivienne Baldassare, Guy Worthey +2
We analyze Hubble Space Telescope (HST) optical imaging of eight low-mass galaxies hosting active galactic nuclei (AGN) identified via their photometric variability in \cite{baldas…
