Some 20% of our nuclear spectra have infrared emission lines, mostly Paschen lines, Brackett γ , and [Fe ii]. We consider the influence of radio power and black hole mass in relation to the spectra.

Received ; in original form ABSTRACT We present near-infrared imaging of a sample of 57 relatively large, Northern spiral galaxies with low inclination. After describing the selection criteria and some of the basic properties of the sample, we give a detailed description of the data collection and reduction procedures. The Ks λ =2.2µm images cover most of the disk for all galaxies, with a field of view of at least 4.2 arcmin. The spatial resolution is better than an arcsec for most images. We fit bulge and exponential disk components to radial profiles of the light distribution. We then derive the basic parameters of these components, as well as the bulge/disk ratio, and explore correlations of these parameters with several galaxy parameters.

Rice5 Received 1986 December 1 ; accepted 1987 February 13 ABSTRACT A complete sample of 324 extragalactic objects with 60 /mi flux densities greater than 5.4 Jy has been select- ed from the IRAS catalogs. Only one of these objects can be classified morphologically as a Seyfert nucleus; the others are all galaxies. The median distance of the galaxies in the sample is ~ 30 Mpc, and the median 10 luminosity vLv(60 /mi) is ~2 x 10 L0. This infrared selected sample is much more “infrared active” than optically selected galaxy samples. 8 12 The range in far-infrared luminosities of the galaxies in the sample is 10 LQ-2 x 10 L©. The far-infrared luminosities of the sample galaxies appear to be independent of the optical luminosities, suggesting a separate luminosity component. As previously found, a correlation exists between 60 /¿m/100 /¿m flux density ratio and far-infrared luminosity. The mass of interstellar dust required to produce the far-infrared radiation corre- 8 10 sponds to a mass of gas of 10 -10 M0 for normal gas to dust ratios. This is comparable to the mass of the interstellar medium in most galaxies. -

Abstract Neutral Gas Outflows and Inflows in Local AGN & High-Z Lyman-Α Emitters in COSMOS Hannah Bowen Krug, Doctor Of
Abstract Title of dissertation: Neutral Gas Outflows and Inflows in Local AGN & High-z Lyman-α Emitters in COSMOS Hannah Bowen Krug, Doctor of Philosophy, 2013 Dissertation directed by: Professor Sylvain Veilleux Department of Astronomy This thesis is composed of two parts: (1) a search for neutral gas outflows and inflows in local active galactic nuclei (AGN) and ultraluminous infrared galax- ies (ULIRGs), and (2) a deep and wide imaging search for high-redshift Lyman-α emitters (LAEs). In the first part, we utilize the R-C spectrograph on the Mayall 4m telescope at Kitt Peak National Observatory (KPNO) to look for Na I D ab- sorption. Galactic outflows are thought to play a major role in galactic feedback and evolution, and previous studies of neutral gas have shown that galactic winds occur in most galaxies with high infrared (IR) luminosities. However, in composite systems where a starburst coexists with an active galactic nucleus (AGN), it is un- clear whether the starburst or the AGN is driving the outflows. This thesis attempts to answer that question by looking at samples of Seyfert galaxies, Palomar-Green quasistellar objects (PG QSOs), and ULIRGs. We first describe the results from a search for Na I D outflows in 35 IR- faint Seyferts. We find that the outflow detection rates for IR-faint Seyferts are substantially lower than those of IR-luminous Seyferts. The outflow kinematics of Seyfert 2s resemble those of starburst galaxies, while the outflow velocities in Seyfert 1s are significantly larger. Taken together, these results suggest that the AGN does not play a significant role in driving the outflows in most Seyferts, except the high- velocity outflows seen in Seyfert 1s. -

The sample comprises 78 ob- jects, divided into 43 Seyfert 2s, 26 Seyfert 1s, 3 Starburst and 6 normal galaxies. The spectra pertain to the inner ∼ 300 pc in radius, and thus sample the central kine- matics and stellar populations of active galaxies. The data are used to measure stellar velocity dispersions (σ⋆) both with cross-correlation and direct fitting methods. These measurements are found to be in good agreement with each-other and with those in previous studies for objects in common. The CaT equivalent width is also measured. -
The Large Scale Distribution of Radio Continuum in Ε and So Galaxies
THE LARGE SCALE DISTRIBUTION OF RADIO CONTINUUM IN Ε AND SO GALAXIES R.D. Ekers, Kapteyn Astronomical Institute, University of Groningen If we look at the radio properties of the nearby ellipticals we find a situation considerably different from that just described by van der Kruit for the spiral galaxies. For example NGC 5128 (Cen A), the nearest giant elliptical galaxy, is a thousand times more powerful a radio source than the brightest spiral galaxies and furthermore its radio emission comes from a multiple lobed radio structure which bears no resemblance to the optical light distribution (e.g. Ekers, 1975). The other radio emitting elliptical galaxies in our neighbourhood, NGC 1316 (Fornax A), IC 4296 (1333-33), have similar morphology. A question which then arises is whether at lower levels we can detect radio emission coming from the optical image of the elliptical galaxies and which may be more closely related to the kind of emission seen in the spiral galaxies. Since elliptical galaxies are less numerous than spiral galaxies we have to search out to the Virgo cluster to obtain a good sample. Some results from a Westerbork map of the central region of the Virgo cluster at 1.4 GHz (Kotanyi and Ekers, in preparation) is given in the Table.
