PublicaciónSpace 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...

PublicaciónThe Accretion Mode in Sub-Eddington Supermassive Black Holes: Getting into the Central Parsecs of Andromeda
The inner kiloparsec regions surrounding sub-Eddington (luminosity less than 10 -3 in Eddington units, L Edd) supermassive black holes (BHs) often show a...

PublicaciónThe Black Hole Mass-Color Relations for Early- and Late-type Galaxies: Red and Blue Sequences
The tight correlations between supermassive black hole (SMBH) mass (M BH) and the properties of the host galaxy have useful implications for our understanding...

PublicaciónThe First Billion Years project: birthplaces of direct collapse black holes
We investigate the environment in which direct-collapse black holes may form by analysing a cosmological, hydrodynamical simulation that is part of the First...

PublicaciónThe miniJPAS survey: AGN and host galaxy coevolution of X-ray-selected sources
Studies indicate strong evidence of a scaling relation in the local Universe between the supermassive black hole mass (M BH) and the stellar mass of their host...

PublicaciónThe spatially resolved broad line region of IRAS 09149-6206
We present new near-infrared VLTI/GRAVITY interferometric spectra that spatially resolve the broad Brγ emission line in the nucleus of the active galaxy IRAS...

PublicaciónToward measuring supermassive black hole masses with interferometric observations of the dust continuum
This work focuses on active galactic nuclei (AGNs) and on the relation between the sizes of the hot dust continuum and the broad-line region (BLR). We find that...

PublicaciónTwo new confirmed massive relic galaxies: red nuggets in the present-day Universe
We confirm two new local massive relic galaxies, i.e. untouched survivors of the early Universe massive population: Mrk 1216 and PGC 032873. Both show early and...
