The Star Formation Rate - Dense Gas Relation in the Nuclei of Nearby Galaxies

open access: yes, 2008
We investigate the relationship between the star formation rate (SFR) and dense molecular gas mass in the nuclei of galaxies. To do this, we utilize the observed 850 micron luminosity as a proxy for the infrared luminosity and SFR, and correlate this ...

The First Triple Radio Active Galactic Nucleus in an Ongoing Galaxy Merger

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Galaxy mergers are predicted to be a critical stage of merger-driven SMBH growth and galaxy evolution. Systems exhibiting multiple active galactic nuclei (AGN) are an important observational tool for constraining the prevalence and properties of merging ...

Kinematics of Nuclei of Sc Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesHighlights of Astronomy, 1980
For a sample of 21 Sc galaxies with a wide range of luminosities, of radii, and of masses, W. K. Ford and I have obtained spectra and determined rotation curves. By their kinematical behavior in their central regions, the Sc’s can be separated into two groups. Some galaxies, generally small and of low luminosity, have shallow central velocity gradients,

VLBI Observations of NGC6240: resolving the double nuclei and radio supernovae

open access: yes, 2011
The European VLBI Network (EVN) has been used at two epochs in 2003 and 2009 to obtain multi-frequency high-resolution images of the merger galaxy NGC6240 in order to study the radio properties of all compact high-brightness components in the galaxy. Our

COMPTEL Observations of AGN at MeV-Energies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
The COMPTEL experiment aboard CGRO, exploring the previously unknown sky at MeV-energies, has so far detected 10 Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN): 9 blazars and the radio galaxy Centaurus A. No Seyfert galaxy has been found yet.

Hubble Space Telescope Wide Field Camera 3 Identifies an $r_p$ = 1 Kpc Dual Active Galactic Nucleus in the Minor Galaxy Merger SDSS J0924+0510 at z = 0.1495

open access: yes, 2018
Kiloparsec-scale dual active galactic nuclei (AGNs) are active supermassive black hole pairs co-rotating in galaxies with separations of less than a few kpc.

The complexity of parsec-scaled dusty tori in AGN

open access: yes, 2012
Warm gas and dust surround the innermost regions of active galactic nuclei (AGN). They provide the material for accretion onto the super-massive black hole and they are held responsible for the orientation-dependent obscuration of the central engine. The

BASS. XLI. The Correlation between Mid-infrared Emission Lines and Active Galactic Nuclei Emission

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We analyze Spitzer spectra of 140 active galactic nuclei (AGN) detected in the hard X-rays (14–195 keV) by the Burst Alert Telescope on board Swift.
