No Galaxy-scale [C ii] Fast Outflow in the z = 6.72 Red Quasar HSC J1205–0000

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
HSC 120505.09-000027.9 (J1205–0000) is one of the highest redshift ( z = 6.72) dust-reddened quasars (red quasars) known to date. We present an improved analysis of Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array data of the [C  ii ] 158 μ m line and the ...

Multiple Emission Regions in Jets of the Low-Luminosity Active Galactic Nucleus in NGC 4278

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO) has detected very-high-energy gamma rays from the low-ionization nuclear emission-line region galaxy NGC 4278, which has a low-luminosity active galactic nucleus (LLAGN) and symmetric, mildly ...

ON THE DISAPPEARANCE OF THE BROAD-LINE REGION IN LOW-LUMINOSITY ACTIVE GALACTIC NUCLEI

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2009
The disk-wind scenario for the broad-line region (BLR) and toroidal obscuration in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) predicts the disappearance of the BLR at low luminosities. In accordance with the model predictions, data from a nearly complete sample of nearby AGNs show that the BLR disappears at luminosities lower than 5 × 1039(M/107 M☉)2/3 ergs-1 ...

The DELVE Quadruple Quasar Search. I. A Lensed Low-luminosity Active Galactic Nucleus

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
A quadruply lensed source, J125856.3–031944, has been discovered using the DELVE survey and Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer W1–W2 colors. Follow-up direct imaging carried out with the Magellan Baade 6.5 m telescope is analyzed, as is spectroscopy ...

Comparing Observed Properties of Winds in Low-luminosity Active Galactic Nuclei with Theoretical Predictions

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Theoretical and numerical simulations of black hole hot accretion flows have shown the ubiquitous existence of winds and predicted their properties, such as velocity and mass flux.

Probing The Central Engines Of Low-Luminosity Active Galactic Nuclei

open access: yes, 2013
I give a brief review of the observational properties of low-luminosity AGNs (LLAGNs). I outline some unresolved issues in the study of LLAGNs, emphasizing the uncertainties in the role of the truncated thin accretion disk, the dusty obscuring torus and the origin of high-energy radiation (X-rays and gamma-rays).

ReveaLLAGN 0: First Look at JWST MIRI Data of Sombrero and NGC 1052

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present the first results from the Revealing Low-Luminosity Active Galactic Nuclei (ReveaLLAGN) survey, a JWST survey of seven nearby LLAGNs. We focus on two observations with the Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI)’s Medium-Resolution Spectrometer of the ...

Mid-infrared Variability from the Central Point Source as Direct Evidence for Obscured Low-luminosity Nuclear Activity in the Nearby Edge-on Galaxy IC 2207

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Reliable identification of ongoing nuclear activity in nearby galaxies is challenging when central regions are heavily obscured, especially for low-luminosity active galactic nuclei (AGN) whose emission can also be contaminated by the host galaxy.
