Using integral-field spectroscopic data of an archival sample of 51 local AGNs, we estimate the fraction of non-stellar light by comparing the nuclear equivalent width of the stellar 2.3 µm CO absorption feature with the intrinsic value for each galaxy. We compare this fraction to that derived from a spectral decomposition of the integrated light in the central arcsecond and find them to be consistent with each other. Using our estimates of the near-IR AGN light, we find a strong correlation with presumably isotropic AGN tracers. We show that a significant offset exists between type 1 and type 2 sources in the sense that type 1 MIR X sources are 7 (10) times brighter in the near-IR at log LAGN = 42.5 (log LAGN = 42.5). -

Februar Lup Mon Pup Pyx Sex Vir Deklinationsbereic h: -35° ... 7° Fläche am Himmel: 1303° 2 Mythologie und Geschichte: Bei der nördlichen Wasserschlange überlagern sich zwei verschiedene Bilder aus der griechischen Mythologie. Das erste Bild zeugt von der eher harmlosen Wasserschlange aus der Geschichte des Raben : Der Rabe wurde von Apollon ausgesandt, um mit einem goldenen Becher frisches Quellwasser zu holen. Stattdessen tat sich dieser an Feigen gütlich und trug bei seiner Rückkehr die Wasserschlange in seinen Fängen, als angebliche Begründung für seine Verspätung. Um jedermann an diese Untat zu erinnern, wurden der Rabe samt Becher und Wasserschlange am Himmel zur Schau gestellt. Von einem ganz anderen Schlag war die Wasserschlange, mit der Herakles zu tun hatte: In einem Sumpf in der Nähe von Lerna, einem See und einer Stadt an der Küste von Argo, hauste ein unsagbar gefährliches und grässliches Untier. Diese Schlange soll mehrere Köpfe gehabt haben. Fünf sollen es gewesen sein, aber manche sprechen auch von sechs, neun, ja fünfzig oder hundert Köpfen, aber in jedem Falle war der Kopf in der Mitte unverwundbar. Fürchterlich war es, da diesen grässlichen Mäulern - ob die Schlange nun schlief oder wachte - ein fauliger Atem, ein Hauch entwich, dessen Gift tödlich war. Kaum schlug ein todesmutiger Mann dem Untier einen Kopf ab, wuchsen auf der Stelle zwei neue Häupter hervor, die noch furchterregender waren. Eurystheus, der König von Argos, beauftragte Herakles in seiner zweiten Aufgabe diese lernäische Wasserschlange zu töten. -

We apply the Kormendy relation to classify classical and pseudo bulges and characterize bulge dichotomy with respect to bulge structural properties and physical properties of host galaxies. We confirm previous findings that pseudo bulges on average have smaller S´ersic indices, smaller bulge-to-total ratios, and fainter surface brightnesses when compared with classical bulges. Our sizable sample statistically shows that pseudo bulges are more intrinsically flattened than classical bulges. Pseudo bulges are most frequent (incidence & 80%) in late-type spirals (later than Sc). Our measurements support the picture in which pseudo bulges arose from star formation induced by inflowing gas, while classical bulges were born out of violent processes such as mergers and coalescence of clumps. We reveal differences with the literature that warrant attention: (1) the bimodal distribution of S´ersicindices presented by previous studies is not reproduced in our study; (2) classical and pseudo bulges have similar relative bulge sizes; and (3) the pseudo bulge fraction is considerably smaller in early-type disks compared with previous studies based on one-dimensional surface brightness profile fitting. -

Buta1 Received 2005 July 19; accepted 2005 November 19 ABSTRACT We complement our Hubble Space Telescope (HST ) observations of the inner ring of the galaxy NGC 3081 using an analytical approach and n-body simulations. We find that a gas cloud inner (r) ring forms under a rotating bar perturbation with very strong azimuthal cloud crowding where the ring crosses the bar major axis. Thus, star forma- tion results near to and ‘‘downstream’’ of the major axis. From the dust distribution and radial velocities, the disk rotates counterclockwise (CCW) on the sky like the bar pattern speed. We explain the observed CCW color asym- metry crossing the major axis as due to the increasing age of stellar associations inside the r ring major axis. -
Dark Energy and Extending the Geodesic Equations of Motion: Connecting the Galactic and Cosmological Length Scales
General Relativity and Gravitation (2011) DOI 10.1007/s10714-010-1043-z RESEARCHARTICLE A. D. Speliotopoulos Dark energy and extending the geodesic equations of motion: connecting the galactic and cosmological length scales Received: 23 May 2010 / Accepted: 16 June 2010 c The Author(s) 2010 Abstract Recently, an extension of the geodesic equations of motion using the Dark Energy length scale was proposed. Here, we apply this extension to analyz- ing the motion of test particles at the galactic scale and longer. A cosmological check of the extension is made using the observed rotational velocity curves and core sizes of 1,393 spiral galaxies. We derive the density profile of a model galaxy using this extension, and with it, we calculate σ8 to be 0.73±0.12; this is within +0.049 experimental error of the WMAP value of 0.761−0.048. We then calculate R200 to be 206±53 kpc, which is in reasonable agreement with observations. Keywords Dark energy, Galactic density profile, Density fluctuations, Extensions of the geodesic equations of motion, Galactic rotation curves 1 Introduction In a previous paper [1], we constructed an extension of the geodesic equations of motion (GEOM). This construction is possible because with the discovery of +0.82 −30 3 Dark Energy, ΛDE = (7.21−0.84) × 10 g/cm [2; 3; 4], there is now a length 1/2 scale, λDE = c/(ΛDEG) , associated with the universe. As this length scale is also not associated with the mass of any known particle, this extension does not violate various statements of the equivalence principle.
