Gas flows between galaxies and the CGM play a crucial role in galaxy evolution. When ionized by a quasar, these gas flows can be directly traced as giant nebulae. We present a study of a giant nebula around a radio-loud quasar, 3C$\,$57 at…

A subparsec-scale dense plasma torus around an active galactic nucleus (AGN) is unveiled. We report on very-long-baseline interferometry (VLBI) observations at 2.3, 8.4, and 15.4 GHz towards the active galaxy NGC 1052. The convex spectra of…

We present ALMA observations of the CO(2-1) and CO(3-2) molecular gas transitions and associated (sub)-mm continua of the nearby Seyfert 1.5 galaxy NGC3227 with angular resolutions 0.085-0.21" (7-15pc). On large scales the cold molecular…

We present Northern Extended Millimeter Array (NOEMA) observations of the CO (2-1) molecular gas kinematics in the nearby Compton-thick Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 3079, with an angular resolution of 0.5" ($\sim$40 pc). To interpret the observed…

We present high-resolution, long-slit spectroscopic observations of five compact ($\leq$ 10 arcsec) planetary nebulae located close to the galactic bulge region and for which no high spatial resolution images are available. The data have…

Understanding the inner structure of the clumpy molecular torus surrounding the active galactic nucleus is essential in revealing the forming mechanism. However, spatially resolving the torus is difficult because of its size of a few…

We present Submillimeter Array (SMA) mapping of $^{12}$CO $J=2\rightarrow 1$, $^{13}$CO $J=2\rightarrow 1$, and CN $N=2\rightarrow 1$ emission from the Ring-like planetary nebula (PN) NGC 3132, one of the subjects of JWST Early Release…

The process of massive star formation is tightly connected with the appearance of molecular outflows, which interact with surrounding interstellar medium and can be used as a proxy to study the accretion process of material onto forming…

We have made the first map of CO(J=3-2) emission covering the disk of the edge-on galaxy, NGC~4631, which is known for its spectacular gaseous halo. The strongest emission, which we model with a Gaussian ring,occurs within a radius of 5…

We have obtained new velocity-resolved spectra of the [CII] 158 micron line towards the Ring Nebula in Lyra (NGC 6720), one of the best-studied planetary nebulae, in order to probe its controversial 3-dimensional structure and to estimate…
