We report on Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA) observations of CO(3−2) emission in the Seyfert2/starburst galaxy NGC 1808, at a spatial resolution of 4 pc...
Black Hole Mass estimates in nearby AGN from Host-Bulge Properties
In this work we present the results of an optical photometric study performed to seven nearby AGN that were selected with the SDSS-DR5 database. Surface...
Black hole masses and starbursts in X-shaped radio sources
It has been suggested that the X-shaped morphology observed in some radio sources can reflect either a recent merger of two supermassive black holes (SMBHs) or...
Black hole masses of tidal disruption event host galaxies II
We present new medium resolution, optical long-slit spectra of a sample of six ultraviolet (UV)/optical and 17 X-ray-selected tidal disruption event candidate...
Black hole virial masses from single-epoch photometry. The miniJPAS test case
Context. Precise measurements of black hole masses are essential to understanding the coevolution of these sources and their host galaxies. Aims: We develop a...
We present integral field spectroscopic observations of the central region of the active galaxy NGC 4258 obtained with the fibre IFU system INTEGRAL. We have...
Blue Luminous Stars in Nearby Galaxies: Quantitative Spectral Analysis of M33 B-Type Supergiant Stars
We present the detailed spectral analysis of a sample of M33 B-type supergiant stars, aimed at the determination of their fundamental parameters and chemical...
Blue Luminous Stars in Nearby Galaxies—UIT 005: A Possible Link to the Luminous Blue Variable Stage
A detailed study of the blue supergiant UIT 005 (B2-2.5Ia+) in M 33 is presented. The results of our quantitative spectral analysis indicate that the star is a...
Blue straggler star (BSS) candidates have been observed in all old dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs), however whether or not they are authentic BSSs or young...
