We present an analysis of the 101 ks, 2007 Suzaku spectrum of the LINER galaxy NGC 1052. The 0.5-10 keV continuum is well-modeled by a power-law modified by Galactic and intrinsic absorption, and it exhibits a soft, thermal emission…

Using the HST STIS spectrograph we have obtained a grid of [O III] and H-beta emission-line spectra at 0"05x0"19 and 60 km/s (FWHM) resolution that covers much of the NLR of NGC 1068. We find emitting knots that have blueshifted radial…

Adopting a spherically symmetric steady-state ballistic inflow as the kinematic model for the gas distribution responsible for producing the H{\alpha} emission line and a central black hole (BH) mass of 1.7 x10^6 M_sun, determined from…

An-energy dependent variation of the X-ray emission from the archetypical "Compton-thick'' Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC1068 has been observed between two BeppoSAX observations, performed one year apart. This variation (at the 2.6 sigma level) is…

We present our recent results about the extended narrow-line region (ENLR) of two nearby Seyfert 2 galaxies (IC 5063 and NGC 7212) obtained by modelling the observed line profiles and spectra with composite models (photoionization+shocks)…

In this work, we revisit the size-luminosity relation of the extended narrow line regions (ENLRs) using a large sample of nearby active galactic nuclei (AGN) from the Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory (MaNGA) survey. The…

We present the results of a series of observations of the near- and mid-infrared polarisation properties of the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC1068. Our data agree well with previously published results in showing the need for a separate polarisation…

We present HST/ACS narrow-band images of a low-z sample of 19 3C radio galaxies to study the H$\alpha$ and [OIII] emissions from the narrow-line region (NLR). Based on nuclear emission line ratios, we divide the sample into High and Low…

We have performed wide-field, ultra-low surface brightness H$\alpha$ emission line mapping around NGC 1068 with the newly commissioned Circumgalactic H$\alpha$ Spectrograph (\chas). NGC 1068 is notable for its active galactic nucleus, which…

We present dynamical models of the narrow line region (NLR) outflows in the nearby Seyfert galaxies Mrk 3, Mrk 78, NGC 1068, and NGC 4151 using observations from the Hubble Space Telescope and Apache Point Observatory. We employ long-slit…

We analyze Chandra observations of diffuse soft X-ray emission associated with a complete sample of 3CR radio galaxies at z < 0.3. In this paper we focus on the properties of the spectroscopic sub-classes of high excitation galaxies (HEGs)…

The ISO-SWS infrared spectroscopic observations of the nucleus of Seyfert galaxy NGC4151, which are described in a companion paper, are used together with a compilation of UV to IR narrow emission line data to determine the spectral shape…

Early studies of nearby Seyfert galaxies have led to the picture that the Narrow Line Region (NLR) is a cone-shaped region of gas ionized by radiation from a nuclear source collimated by a dusty torus, where the gas is in outflow. In this…

The X-ray narrow emission line region (NELR) of the archetypal Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC\,5548 has been interpreted as a single-phase photoionized plasma that is absorbed by some of the warm absorber components. This scenario requires those…

We present high angular resolution radio snap-shot observations of seven nearby low-luminosity active galaxies (LLAGN) from the NUclei of GAlaxies (NUGA) survey. The observations were conducted with MERLIN and EVN/VLBI at 18cm and 6cm. At…

We present the results of the spatial and spectral analysis of the deep (~200 ksec) Chandra HETG observation of the changing look AGN NGC7582. During this observation NGC7582 was in a highly obscured state. Therefore, we considered also a…
