Decomposition of the central structure of NGC 2273 in the NIR: A case study

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 344, Issue 10, December 2023., 2023
Abstract The Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 2273 is a prime target to explore how active nuclei can be fed. It has a star‐forming innermost nuclear ring with a radius of 0.33kpc from where material may be funneled to the supermassive black hole in its center. In this article, we discuss high‐resolution adaptive optics aided JHKs images of NGC 2273 taken with the

Extreme accretion events: TDEs and changing‐look AGN

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 344, Issue 4, May 2023., 2023
Abstract We present a review of the topics of X‐ray stellar tidal disruption events (TDEs) and changing‐look active galactic nuclei (AGN). Stars approaching a supermassive black hole (SMBH) can be tidally disrupted and accreted. TDEs were first discovered in the X‐ray regime and appear as luminous, giant‐amplitude flares from inactive galaxies.

Dust in starburst galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 1997
To investigate the nature of starbursts' dust, we constructed a model of the stars and dust in starburst galaxies and applied it to 30 observed starburst spectral energy distributions (SEDs). The starburst model was constructed by combining two stellar evolutionary synthesis models with a model describing the radiative transfer of stellar photons ...

A new multi‐messenger description of starburst galaxies emission: perspectives for neutrino and gamma‐ray observations

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 344, Issue 1-2, January-February 2023., 2023
Abstract Star‐forming and starburst galaxies (SBGs), which are well‐known cosmic‐ray (CR) reservoirs, are expected to emit gamma rays and neutrinos predominantly via hadronic collisions. In this work we analyze the 10‐year Fermi‐Low Energy Technique (LAT) spectral energy distributions of 13 nearby galaxies by means of a physical model that accounts for

Chemical abundances in the dwarf galaxy NGC 4163 based on the nebular and auroral emission lines

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 343, Issue 9-10, November-December 2022., 2022
Abstract We constructed an oxygen abundance map and N/O ratio map of the unusually low excitation dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 4163 based on publicly available spectroscopy obtained by the MaNGA survey. We detected auroral emission line [O II]λλ$$ \lambda \lambda $$7320,7330 which allows us to measure chemical abundance by direct Te$$ {\mathrm{T}}_e ...

Masers in starburst galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2007
AbstractMasers in starburst galaxies are outstanding probes of a range of phenomena related to galaxy and black hole evolution, and offer unique high brightness temperature illumination that can be used to probe small scales in the host galaxy and in our own.

Starbursts in Isolated Galaxies? [PDF]

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 2005
I investigated the evolution of star forming dwarf galaxies by means of a one-zone model extended for dynamical evolution. This allows for a coupling between the dynamical state of the galaxy and its internal properties like star formation activity or the thermal state of the interstellar medium (ISM). The presented work focusses on the star formation (
