Investigation of Stellar Kinematics and Ionized Gas Outflows in Local (U)LIRGs

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We explore the properties of stellar kinematics and ionized gas in a sample of 1106 local (U)LIRGs from the AKARI telescope. We combine data from Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer and Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 13 to fit the spectral energy ...

Revisiting the X-Ray Variability Plane of Active Galactic Nuclei: The Significant Role of the Photon Index

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
X-ray variability provides a powerful probe of the innermost regions of active galactic nuclei (AGNs), offering valuable insights into the accretion process and the structure of the corona.

Active galactic nuclei hosting jets

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Galactic activity has been shown to play a fundamental role in galaxy and cluster evolution throughout the history of the Universe. In the last decades, a number of works have tackled the determination of radio luminosity functions and their ...

The Response of Warm Absorbers to the Variations in the Ionizing Continuum in the Active Galaxy NGC 4051

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a time-resolved X-ray spectral analysis of the warm absorbers in the Seyfert galaxy NGC 4051, which has an active galactic nucleus (AGN), using observations from the Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER).

The Merging Galaxy Cluster Environment Affects the Morphology of Radio Active Galactic Nuclei

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
It has previously been found that the galaxy cluster environment can affect the fueling and evolution of active galactic nuclei (AGN). This work examines the effect of the merging cluster environment on the properties of radio AGN by comparing the radio ...

Investigation of the Quasi-periodic Oscillation Phase Lag of RE J1034+396

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We conduct an in-depth study of the quasi-periodic oscillation (QPO) properties of RE J1034+396 by constructing QPO phase-folded light curves from 10 XMM-Newton observations during 2020–2021.

Stacking X-Ray Observations of “Little Red Dots”: Implications for Their Active Galactic Nucleus Properties

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Recent James Webb Space Telescope observations have revealed a population of compact extragalactic objects at z ≳ 4 with red near-infrared colors, which have been dubbed as “Little Red Dots” (LRDs).

The Changing-look Phenomenon Accompanied by an Accretion Mode Transition in NGC 3786

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
To reveal the physical origin of the changing-look (CL) phenomenon in NGC 3786, which transitioned from type 1.8/1.9 to type 1, we present an analysis of long-term spectral monitoring in the optical and near-infrared obtained with Gemini/GMOS-N and ...
