Imaging the Circumnuclear Region of NGC 1365 with Chandra
We present the first Chandra/ACIS imaging study of the circumnuclear region of the nearby Seyfert galaxy NGC 1365. The X-ray emission is resolved into point-like sources and complex, extended emission. The X-ray morphology of the extended emission shows a biconical soft X-ray emission region extending ∼5 kpc in projection from the nucleus, coincident with the high excitation outflow cones seen ...
متن کاملA circumnuclear molecular torus in NGC 1365
The central region of NGC 1365 has been mapped in the J = 3 − 2 CO emission line with the 15 m SEST, which has a HPBW of 15′′ at the frequency of this transition. The observing grid has a 5′′-spacing in the inner and a 10′′-spacing in the outer region. A deconvolved map has been produced using the Maximum Entropy Method (MEM). A circumnuclear molecular torus with a radius of about 6. ′′5 is the...
متن کاملThe obscured circumnuclear region of the outflow galaxy NGC 3079
Images of the central region of the almost edge-on Sc galaxy NGC 3079 in the J , H and K-bands and in the v = 1→0 S(1) line of molecular hydrogen are presented. The inner few kiloparsecs of NGC 3079 exhibit a large range of nearinfrared colours caused by varying contributions from direct and scattered stellar light, emission from hot dust and extinction gradients. Our results show that interpre...
متن کاملThe ROSAT view of NGC 1365 and the luminous highly variable off-nuclear X-ray source NGC 1365–X1
We present an X-ray spectral and spatial analysis of the composite starburst/Seyfert galaxy NGC1365. Excellent fits of the ROSAT PSPC spectrum are obtained by combining a soft thermal component with a hard powerlaw. The hard component may be either seen directly or can be explained by scattering of the AGN powerlaw at circumnuclear warm high-column-density gas. A compilation of the multi-wavele...
متن کاملCold dust in the giant barred galaxy NGC 1365
Constraining the physcial properties of dust requires observations at submm wavelengths. This will provide important insight into the gas content of galaxies. We mapped NGC 1365 at 870 μm with LABOCA, the Large APEX Bolometer Camera, allowing us to probe the central mass concentration as well as the rate at which the gas flows to the center. We obtained the dust physical properties both globall...
