The Kiloparsec-scale Influence of the AGN in NGC 1068 with SALT RSS Fabry–Pérot Spectroscopy

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We present Fabry–Pérot (FP) imaging and longslit spectroscopy of the nearby Seyfert II galaxy NGC 1068 using the Robert Stobie Spectrograph (RSS) on the Southern African Large Telescope (SALT) to observe the impact of the central active galactic nucleus (

Spectral Decomposition of Broad-Line AGNs and Host Galaxies

open access: yes, 2005
Using an eigenspectrum decomposition technique, we separate the host galaxy from the broad line active galactic nucleus (AGN) in a set of 4666 spectra from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), from redshifts near zero up to about 0.75.

Looking for Signatures of AGN Feedback in Radio-Quiet AGN

open access: yesGalaxies, 2023
In this article, we discuss the state of “AGN feedback” in radio-quiet (RQ) AGN. This study involves heterogeneous samples of nearby Seyfert and LINER galaxies as well as quasi-stellar objects (QSOs) that have been observed at low radio frequencies (few ∼

The Effects of an AGN on Host Galaxy Colour and Morphology Measurements

open access: yes, 2010
We assess the effects of simulated active galactic nuclei (AGNs) on the colour and morphology measurements of their host galaxies. To test the morphology measurements, we select a sample of galaxies not known to host AGNs and add a series of point ...

Host galaxy properties of radio selected AGN [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2013
AbstractWith the goal of investigating the link between black hole (BH) and star formation (SF) activity, we study a deep sample of radio selected star forming galaxies (SFGs) and active galactic nuclei (AGNs). Using a multi-wavelength approach we characterize their host galaxies properties (stellar masses, optical colors, and morphology).

Galactic bars and active galactic nucleus fuelling in the second half of cosmic history

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
We investigate the role of galactic bars in fuelling and triggering active galactic nuclei (AGN) in disc galaxies up to z ∼ 0.8. We utilised a deep learning model, fine-tuned on Galaxy Zoo volunteer classifications, to identify (strongly and weakly ...

PRIMUS: The relationship between Star formation and AGN accretion

open access: yes, 2015
We study the evidence for a connection between active galactic nuclei (AGN) fueling and star formation by investigating the relationship between the X-ray luminosities of AGN and the star formation rates (SFRs) of their host galaxies.

Structure and morphology of X-ray selected AGN hosts at 1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We analyze morphologies of the host galaxies of 35 X-ray selected active galactic nucleus (AGNs) at $z\sim2$ in the Cosmic Evolution Survey (COSMOS) field using Hubble Space Telescope/WFC3 imaging taken from the Cosmic Assembly Near-infrared Deep ...

Agn Host Galaxy Properties And Mass Function

open access: green, 2016
Supermassive black hole growth, nuclear activity, and galaxy evolution have been found to be closely related. In the context of AGN-galaxy coevolution, I will discuss about the relation found between the host galaxy properties and the central BH and I will present the latest determination of the host galaxy stellar mass function (HGMF), and the ...
