    Two-component model for III Zw 2 broad line region
    We have modelled the central emitting broad line region (BLR) of the III Zw 2 using the Hα, Hβ, Lyα and Mg II (2798) broad lines. We proposed that two-component...

    What ULIRGs and AGNs have to hide
    The great energy source of ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs) may be the accreting supermassive black holes of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) or intense...

    Witnessing the Formation of Massive, Distant Galaxies in the (Sub)Millimeter Regime
    In order to understand galaxy formation it is crucial to obtain sensitive observations of the emission of dust and molecular gas both of which constrain the on...
