Spatially Resolved Spectra of 3C Galaxy Nuclei [PDF]

open access: bronzeThe Astronomical Journal, 1998
We present and discuss visible-wavelength long-slit spectra of four low redshift 3C galaxies obtained with the STIS instrument on the Hubble Space Telescope. The slit was aligned with near-nuclear jet-like structure seen in HST images of the galaxies, to give unprecedented spatial resolution of the galaxy inner regions.

The Role of AGN in Luminous Infrared Galaxies from the Multiwavelength Perspective

open access: yesUniverse, 2022
Galaxy mergers provide a mechanism for galaxies to effectively funnel gas and materials toward their nuclei and fuel the central starbursts and accretion of supermassive black holes.

CAHA/PPAK Integral-field Spectroscopic Observations of M81. II. Testing Photoionization Models in a Spatially Resolved LINER

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The origin of the low-ionization nuclear emission-line region (LINER) prevalent in local galaxies and its relationship with supermassive black holes have been debated for decades.

Galaxies with Binary Nuclei [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2013
AbstractIt is known that among active galaxies (AG) with strong emission lines (UV-galaxies, Sy1 and Sy2, Markarian and Kazarian galaxies, radio-galaxies, QSOs host galaxies and so on) there is a large percentage of objects with double and multiple (or complex) nuclei.

SDSS-IV MaNGA: How Galaxy Interactions Influence Active Galactic Nuclei

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present a comparative study of active galactic nuclei (AGN) between galaxy pairs and isolated galaxies with the final data release of the MaNGA integral field spectroscopic survey.

A Chandra X-Ray Survey of Optically Selected Close Galaxy Pairs: Unexpectedly Low Occupation of Active Galactic Nuclei

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
High-resolution X-ray observations offer a unique tool for probing the still-elusive connection between galaxy mergers and active galactic nuclei (AGNs).

Active galactic nuclei and galaxy interactions [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2007
We perform a statistical analysis of active galactic nucleus (AGN) host characteristics and nuclear activity for AGNs in pairs and without companions. Our study concerns a sample of AGNs derived from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 4 data by Kauffmann et al. and pair galaxies obtained from the same data set by Alonso et al.

Rotational Curves of the Milky Way Galaxy and Andromeda Galaxy in Light of Vacuum Polarization around Eicheon

open access: yesUniverse, 2023
Eicheon properties are discussed. It is shown that the eicheon surface allows setting a boundary condition for the vacuum polarization and obtaining a solution describing the dark matter tail in the Milky Way Galaxy. That is, the dark matter in the Milky

Dark Matter in the Milky Way as the F-Type of Vacuum Polarization

open access: yesPhysical Sciences Forum, 2023
Dark matter in the Milky Way is explained by the F-type of vacuum polarization, which could represent dark radiation. A nonsingular solution for dark radiation exists in the presence of eicheon (i.e., black hole in old terminology) in the galaxy’s center.
