We analyze image and spectral data from $\approx$365~ks of observations from the {\it Chandra} X-ray Observatory of the nearby, edge-on starburst galaxy NGC 253 to constrain properties of the hot phase of the outflow. We focus our analysis…
We report sub-arcsecond resolution X-ray imaging spectroscopy of the low luminosity active galactic nucleus of NGC 4258 and its immediate surroundings with the Chandra X-ray Observatory. NGC 4258 was observed four times, with the first two…
Actively accreting supermassive black holes significantly impact the evolution of their host galaxies, truncating further star formation by expelling large fractions of gas with wide-angle outflows. The X-ray band is key to understanding…
We report on the X-ray emission from the shell-like, non-thermal radio source Sgr A East located in the inner few parsecs of the Galaxy based on observations made with the ACIS detector on board Chandra. This is the first time Sgr A East…
We have mapped the stellar and gaseous kinematics, as well as the emission-line flux distributions and ratios, from the inner 450pc radius of Mrk1157, using 2D near-IR spectra obtained with the Gemini NIFS at a spatial resolution of 35pc.…
Archival XMM-Newton data on the nearby Seyfert galaxy NGC 4051, taken in relatively high and low flux states, offer a unique opportunity to explore the complexity of its X-ray spectrum. We find the hard X-ray band to be significantly…
NGC 4945 is one of the nearest (~3.8 Mpc; 1" ~ 19 pc) starburst galaxies. ALMA band 3 (3--4\,mm) observations of HCN, HCO+, CS, C3H2, SiO, HCO, and CH3C2H were carried out with ~2" resolution. The lines reveal a rotating nuclear disk of…
We present a 200 ks Chandra ACIS-I image of Cygnus A, and discuss a long linear feature seen in its counterlobe. This feature has a non-thermal spectrum and lies on the line connecting the brighter hotspot on the approaching side and the…
We present a multi-wavelength study of nuclear outflows in the nearby dwarf Seyfert galaxy NGC~4395, which hosts an intermediate-mass black hole. Using \textit{JWST}/NIRSpec and MIRI IFU spectroscopy (1.66--28.6~$\mu$m), together with ALMA…
We present Chandra ACIS-S imaging spectroscopy results of the extended (1.5''- 8'', 300 pc-1600 pc) hard X-ray emission of NGC 5728, the host galaxy of a Compton thick active galactic nucleus (CT AGN). We find spectrally and…
Broadband continuum images of the edge-on galaxy NGC 891 at 850 and 450 microns are presented. These images are qualitatively very similar to the 1300 micron and CO images obtained by others. With respect to the 850 micron continuum, CO is…
We present the results of near-infrared (NIR) H- and K-band European Southern Observatory SINFONI integral field spectroscopy (IFS) of the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 1433. We present emission and absorption line measurements in the central kpc of…
We present deep Chandra X-ray observations of NGC 5005, a LINER-dominated galaxy previously reported to host a broad H$\alpha$ emission line. The diffuse soft X-ray emission ($<$3 keV) extends out to $\sim$800 pc, while harder emission…
We present the results of a 100 ks {\it Chandra} observation of the NGC 404 nuclear region. The long exposure and excellent spatial resolution of {\it Chandra} has enabled us to critically examine the nuclear environment of NGC 404, which…
Chandra has resolved the starburst nuclear region of the face-on grand-design spiral M83. Eighty-one point sources are detected above 3.5 sigma in the ACIS S3 image, and 15 of them are within the inner 16-arcsec region of the galaxy. A…
We explore the gas morphology and excitation mechanisms of the ionization cones of the Type II Seyfert galaxy NGC 5728. Near-IR and optical data from the SINFONI and MUSE IFUs on the VLT are combined with $HST$ optical images, $Chandra$…
We present the first X-ray analysis of the diffuse hot ionized gas and the point sources in IC131, after NGC604 the second most X-ray luminous giant HII region in M33. The X-ray emission is detected only in the south eastern part of IC131…
Aims: Using XMM-Newton data, we have aimed to study the nuclear outflow of the nearby starburst galaxy NGC 253 in X-rays with respect to its morphology and to spectral variations along the outflow. Methods: We analysed XMM-Newton RGS…
We present a detailed X-ray study of the central subcluster of the nearby ($z$ $\sim$0.0368) Hercules cluster (Abell 2151) identified as A2151C that shows a bimodal structure. A bright clump of hot gas with X-ray emission extending to…
This paper reports on the early Chandra view of the Galactic center (GC) activities. The massive black hole Sgr A* is extremely faint, while more bright diffuse X-ray emission is prevailing in the circumnuclear disk. Another high…
