Low-mass Active Galaxies in the SAMI Galaxy Survey with Spatially Resolved Spectroscopy

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The smallest supermassive black holes (BHs), which provide constraints on BH seeds, reside in low-mass galaxies. Here, we present a systematic analysis of 990 low-mass galaxies in the SAMI Galaxy Survey to identify emission from accreting BHs using ...

The incidence of X-ray AGN and non-AGN galaxies in the far-infrared: Insights into host galaxy properties and AGN obscuration

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
We investigate the far-infrared (far-IR) incidence of X-ray-selected active galactic nuclei (AGNs) and galaxies that do not host an AGN (non-AGNs) as a function of the stellar mass (M*), star formation rate (SFR), and specific black hole accretion rate (λsBHAR), using data from five well-characterized extragalactic fields (COSMOS, XMM-LSS, Stripe82 ...

Modeling Star Formation Histories of Changing-look AGN Host Galaxies with Prospector

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Changing-look active galactic nuclei (CL-AGNs), are AGNs that appear to transition between Seyfert Type 1 and 2 over periods of months to years. Several mechanisms to trigger these transitions have been proposed, but we have yet to conclusively determine

227th AAS Meeting

open access: yes, 2016
We present IFS observations of luminous (log(L[O III]/L⊙) > 8.7) local (z 95 %) correlation between the [N II]/Hα ratio and the velocity dispersion of the gas.

The Perpendicularity of Dust Lanes and Radio Jets in Early-type Galaxies: Implications for Active Galactic Nuclei Feedback

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The orientation of radio jets relative to their host galaxies offers an interesting avenue for probing the connection between active galactic nuclei (AGN) and their surroundings.

Optical surveys of AGN and their host galaxies

open access: yes, 2013
This thesis rests on two large Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs) surveys. The first survey deals with galaxies that host low-level AGNs (LLAGN) and aims at identifying such galaxies by quantifying their variability. While numerous studies have shown that AGNs can be variable at all wavelengths, the nature of the variability is still not well understood ...

ALMA/SCUBA-2 COSMOS Survey: Properties of X-Ray- and SED-selected Active Galactic Nuclei in Bright Submillimeter Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We investigate the properties of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in the brightest submillimeter galaxies (SMGs) in the COSMOS field. We utilize the bright sample of the ALMA/SCUBA-2 COSMOS Survey (AS2COSMOS), which consists of 260 SMGs with S _870 _μ _m  =

AGN host galaxies at z ~ 0.4-1.3 : bulge-dominated and lacking merger-AGN connection

open access: yes, 2005
We investigate morphological structure parameters and local environments of distant moderate-luminosity active galactic nucleus (AGN) host galaxies in the overlap between the HST/ACS observations of the Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey (GOODS) and
