A spectroscopic map of the Galactic centre

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. The centre of the Milky Way is occupied by a dense nuclear star cluster that contains the supermassive black hole Sgr A⋆. The mildly flattened cluster is embedded in the larger surrounding nuclear stellar disc.

The location and kinematics of the emission line regions in Active Galactic Nuclei [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
This thesis contains the results from a study of the optical emission lines of various samples of active galactic nuclei (AGN). We have used three separate techniques to determine the precise kinematics and the relative location of the emission line ...

A Dual Active Black Hole Candidate with Mass Ratio ~7:1 in a Disk Galaxy

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Dual active galactic nuclei (AGNs) with comparable masses are commonly witnessed among the major merged galaxies with interaction remnants. Considering almost every massive galaxy is associated with multiple dwarf satellites around it, minor mergers ...

Stellar kinematics using a third integral of motion: method and application on the Andromeda galaxy

open access: yes
We probe the feasibility of describing the structure of a multicomponent axisymmetric galaxy with a dynamical model based on the Jeans equations while taking into account a third integral of motion.

Jet–ISM Interaction and Multichannel Active Galactic Nucleus Feedback in the Postmerger Galaxy 4C+29.30

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
4C+29.30 is a postmerger galaxy hosting a rejuvenated active galactic nucleus (AGN) with a complex multiscale radio morphology, making it an ideal laboratory to study the interplay between different AGN feedback modes.

Phase spirals induced by the gas warp

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. The discovery of the phase space-spirals in the Solar neighborhood in Gaia Data Release 2 has prompted various attempts to understand their origin. A source of bending waves that has been neglected as a cause of the phase spiral is irregular gas

The MASSIVE Survey. XX. A Triaxial Stellar Dynamical Measurement of the Supermassive Black Hole Mass and Intrinsic Galaxy Shape of Giant Radio Galaxy NGC 315

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a new dynamical measurement of the supermassive black hole mass and intrinsic shape of the stellar halo of the massive radio galaxy NGC 315 as part of the MASSIVE survey.

Star formation complexes in the `galaxy-sized' supergiant shell of the galaxy HolmbergI

open access: yes, 2018
We present the results of observations of the galaxy Holmberg I carried out at the Russian 6-m telescope in the narrow-band imaging, long-slit spectroscopy, and scanning Fabry-Perot interferometer modes.

Misaligned Gas Acquisition as a Formation Pathway of S0 Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We analyze a sample of 753 S0 galaxies from the MPL-10 of Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory survey and investigate the gas–star kinematic misalignment and merger remnant fraction in galaxies with different morphological types.
