    Probing the multi-phase environment of active galactic nuclei
    The inflow of accretion in active galactic nuclei (AGN) and subsequent outflow are ultimately related to the feedback processes that link galaxy and black hole...

    Quasars: triggering and feedback
    There is increasing speculation that quasars are intimately linked to the evolution of their host galaxies. Not only are they triggered as galaxies build up...

    Radio Jet Feedback on the Inner Disk of Virgo Spiral Galaxy Messier 58
    Spitzer spectral maps reveal a disk of highly luminous, warm (>150 K) H 2 in the center of the massive spiral galaxy Messier 58, which hosts a radio-loud active...

    Relativistic hydro and magnetohydrodynamic models for AGN jet propagation and deceleration
    I will present grid-adaptive computational studies of both magnetized and unmagnetized jet flows, with significantly relativistic bulk speeds, as appropriate...

    Rise of the Titans: Gas Excitation and Feedback in a Binary Hyperluminous Dusty Starburst Galaxy at z ∼ 6
    We report new observations toward the hyperluminous dusty starbursting major merger ADFS-27 (z = 5.655), using the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) and...

    Space Telescope and Optical Reverberation Mapping Project. IX. Velocity-Delay Maps for Broad Emission Lines in NGC 5548
    In this contribution, we achieve the primary goal of the active galactic nucleus (AGN) STORM campaign by recovering velocity-delay maps for the prominent broad...

    Space Telescope and Optical Reverberation Mapping Project. XII. Broad-line Region Modeling of NGC 5548
    We present geometric and dynamical modeling of the broad line region (BLR) for the multi-wavelength reverberation mapping campaign focused on NGC 5548 in 2014...

    Study of the diversity of AGN dust models
    The dust component of active galactic nuclei (AGN) produces a broad infrared spectral energy distribution (SED), whose power and shape depends on the fraction...
