Supermassive black holes and their environments [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2008
We make use of the first high--resolution hydrodynamic simulations of structure formation which self-consistently follows the build up of supermassive black holes introduced in Di Matteo et al. (2007) to investigate the relation between black holes (BH), host halo and large--scale environment.

Supermassive black holes in BCGs [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2006
AbstractWe observed a sample of three Brightest Cluster Galaxies (BCGs), Abell 1836-BCG, Abell 2052-BCG, and Abell 3565-BCG, with the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) and the Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) on board the Space Telescope. For each target galaxy we obtained high-resolution spectroscopy of the Hα and [N II] λ6583 emission lines at three slit ...

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

The potsdam arrayed waveguide spectrograph: A demonstrator of a cross‐dispersed integrated photonic spectrograph developed for the astronomical H‐band

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 344, Issue 8-9, October-November 2023., 2023
The Potsdam Arrayed Waveguide Spectrograph (PAWS) is based on an integrated photonic spectrograph designed and developed by innoFSPEC to work in the astronomical H‐band. PAWS demonstrates how a traditional bulk optics spectrograph can be miniaturized and additionally serves as a tool for testing in‐house developed astrophotonical devices.

Growth of Supermassive Black Holes, Galaxy Mergers and Supermassive Binary Black Holes [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2015
AbstractThe study of galaxy mergers and supermassive binary black holes (SMBBHs) is central to our understanding of the galaxy and black hole assembly and (co-)evolution at the epoch of structure formation and throughout cosmic history. Galaxy mergers are the sites of major accretion episodes, they power quasars, grow supermassive black holes (SMBHs ...

PAWS and POCO: NIR Astrophotonic Instruments for Astronomy

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 344, Issue 8-9, October-November 2023., 2023
Abstract For near‐infrared ground and space‐based astronomy, compact photonic devices can replace the large bulk optical components in spectrographs, frequency combs, beam combiners, and sky subtraction filters, thus saving cost, reducing volume, weight, and power requirements.

Characterization of a C‐RED One camera for astrophotonical applications

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 344, Issue 8-9, October-November 2023., 2023
Abstract To better understand the impact of the avalanche gain applied in the detector technology and apply this technology in our in‐house astrophotonic projects, we have characterized a C‐RED One camera and produced a stable and reliable method for calculating the system gain at any desired avalanche gain setting.

A FUNDAMENTAL EQUATION FOR SUPERMASSIVE BLACK HOLES [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Modern Physics D, 2011
We developed a theoretical model that is able to give a common origin to the correlations between the mass M• of supermassive black holes and the mass, velocity dispersion, kinetic energy and momentum parameter of the corresponding host galaxies. Our model is essentially based on the transformation of the angular momentum of the interstellar material,
