The host galaxy/AGN connection. Brightness profiles of early-type galaxies hosting Seyfert nuclei [PDF]

Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2007
[ABRIDGED] We recently presented evidence of a connection between the brightness profiles of nearby early-type galaxies and the properties of the AGN they host.

Star-Forming AGN Host Galaxies [PDF]

New Astronomy Reviews, 2001
The symbiosis of nuclear activity and star-formation in galaxies, as manifested in their spectral energy distributions (SEDs) is reviewed. Attention is drawn to an Hertzsprung-Russell diagram-equivalent for such objects, as well as to the importance of ...

AGN Absorption Linked to Host Galaxies [PDF]

Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2013
Multiwavelength identification of AGN is crucial not only to obtain a more complete census, but also to learn about the physical state of the nuclear activity (obscuration, efficiency, etc.).

The Relation between AGN and Host Galaxy Properties in the JWST Era. II. The Merger-driven Evolution of Seyferts at Cosmic Noon

The Astrophysical Journal
In Paper I, we exploited the unsurpassed resolution and depth of JWST/NIRCam imagery to investigate the relationship between active galactic nuclei (AGN) and host-galaxy properties in the JWST era, finding a correlation between the level of spatial ...

Comparing metallicity correlations in nearby non-AGN and AGN-host galaxies

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
ABSTRACT The gas-phase metallicity distribution within galaxies records critical information about galactic evolution. In this work, we investigate how active galactic nuclei (AGNs) influence this distribution by measuring the two-point correlation functions of gas-phase metallicity in 95 non-AGN and 37 AGN-host galaxies from the Calar ...
