Topics discussed include the origin and early development of galaxies; gas and global star formation; galactic nuclei; population, age, and dynamics of the...
Exploring the Mid-infrared SEDs of Six AGN Dusty Torus Models. I. Synthetic Spectra
At distances from the active galaxy nucleus where the ambient temperature falls below ̃1500-1800 K, dust is able to survive. It is thus possible to have a large...
Exploring the Mid-infrared SEDs of Six AGN Dusty Torus Models. II. The Data
This is the second in a series of papers devoted to exploring a set of six dusty models of active galactic nuclei (AGN) with available spectral energy...
Extended line emission in AGN: Looking at the central engine
The regions of high excitation gas detected around various Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) are examined. The radiation emitted by the nucleus may be responsible...
Extended line emission in AGN: looking at the central engine.
Regions of high excitation gas were detected around various active galactic nuclei. Their shape resembles a cone whose axis is oriented close to the radio axis...
Extended X-Ray Emission around FR II Radio Galaxies: Hot Spots, Lobes, and Galaxy Clusters
We present a systematic analysis of the extended X-ray emission discovered around 35 FR II radio galaxies from the revised Third Cambridge Catalog (3CR) Chandra...
A sample of active galaxies and quasars was observed with a photon-counting detector (IPCS) working in time-resolved imaging mode. The observing and data...
Identifying Missing Quasars from the DESI Bright Galaxy Survey
The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) cosmology survey includes a Bright Galaxy Survey (BGS), which will yield spectra for over 10 million bright...
Image sharpening observations of active galactic nuclei
It is shown that recentering, selecting, and adding up sharp short-exposure images obtained with a photon-counting detector working in time-resolved mode can...
