    The 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...

    Toward 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...

    Two 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...

    Ultramassive Black Holes in the Most Massive Galaxies: M<SUB>BH</SUB>-σ versus M<SUB>BH</SUB>-R<SUB>b</SUB>
    We investigate the nature of the relations between black hole (BH) mass (M BH) and the central velocity dispersion (σ) and, for core-Sérsic galaxies, the size...

    Warm molecular and ionized gas kinematics in the type-2 quasar J0945+1737
    We analyse Near-Infrared Integral Field Spectrograph (NIFS) observations of the type-2 quasar (QSO2) SDSS J094521.33+173753.2 to investigate its warm molecular...
