Extreme X - ray spectral variability in the Seyfert 2 Galaxy NGC 1365
We present multiple Chandra and XMM-Newton observations of the type 1.8 Seyfert Galaxy NGC 1365, which shows the most dramatic X-ray spectral changes observed so far in an AGN: the source switched from reflection dominated to transmission dominated and back in just 6 weeks. During this time the soft thermal component, arising from a ∼ 1 kpc region around the center, remained constant. The refle...
متن کاملThe nuclear starburst activity in the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 7679
We present our recent spectrophotometric results of the infrared luminous Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 7679. We find compelling evidence of the presence of a recent nuclear starburst, revealed by the observations of a) the spectral features of high order Balmer absorption lines, b) the weak equivalent widths for CaIIK λ3933, CN λ4200, G-band λ4300 and MgIb λ5173, and c) the suggested UV stellar wind re...
متن کاملIs a minor - merger driving the nuclear activity in the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 2110 ?
We report on a detailed morphological and kinematic study of the isolated non-barred nearby Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 2110. We combine Integral Field optical spectroscopy, with long-slit and WFPC2 imaging available in the HST archive to investigate the fueling mechanism in this galaxy. Previous work (Wilson & Baldwin 1985) concluded that the kinematic center of the galaxy is displaced ∼ 220 pc from ...
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...
متن کاملSeyfert Activity and Nuclear Star Formation in the Circinus Galaxy
We present high angular resolution (0.15 − 0.5) near infrared images and spectroscopy of the Circinus galaxy, the closest Seyfert 2 galaxy known. The data reveal a non–stellar nuclear source at 2.2μm whose size is smaller than 1.5 pc in radius. The coronal line region and the hot molecular gas emission extend for 20–50 pc in the ionization cone. The data do not show evidence for a point–like co...
