چکیده
We have obtained Keck NIR spectroscopy of a sample nine M$_\star$ $<$ 10$^{10}$ M$_\odot$ dwarf galaxies to confirm AGN activity and the presence galaxy-wide, AGN-driven outflows through coronal line (CL) emission. find strong CL detections in 5/9 (55$\%$) with ratios incompatible shocks, confirming these galaxies. Similar detection rates are found larger samples more massive hosting type 1 2 AGN. investigate connection between CLs galaxy-wide by analyzing kinematics region, as well scaling gas velocity ionization potential different CLs. In addition, using complementary KCWI observations objects, we that outflow velocities measured [Si VI] generally faster than those seen [O III]. The fastest III] also highest luminosity. lack $J$-band CN absorption features, which often associated younger stellar populations, provides further evidence driven low mass

Supernova-driven outflows and chemical evolution of dwarf spheroidal galaxies.
We present a general phenomenological model for the metallicity distribution (MD) in terms of [Fe/H] for dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs). These galaxies appear to have stopped accreting gas from the intergalactic medium and are fossilized systems with their stars undergoing slow internal evolution. For a wide variety of infall histories of unprocessed baryonic matter to feed star formation, m...
متن کاملNear-infrared Observations of Iras Minisurvey Galaxies
Near-infrared photometry at /, H, and K has been obtained for 82 galaxies from the IRAS minisurvey, a sample of infrared-selected galaxies. The near-infrared colors of these galaxies are similar to those of normal field spiral galaxies, but cover a larger range inJ — H and H — K. There is evidence of a tighter correlation between the nearand far-infrared emission than exists between the far-inf...
متن کاملAGN Zoo and Classications of Active Galaxies
We review the variety of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) classes (so-calledAGN zoo") and classification schemes of galaxies by activity types based on their optical emission-line spectrum, as well as other parameters and other than optical wave-length ranges. A historical overview of discoveries of various types of active galaxies is given, including Seyfert galaxies, radio galaxies, QSOs, BL Lace...
متن کاملNear-infrared interferometry of AGN
Interferometry in the infrared is able to resolve the sub-parsec-scale dust environment surrounding the accretion disk of AGN. A diffraction-limited K′-band image of NGC 1068 with 74 mas resolution and the first H-band image with 57 mas resolution were reconstructed from speckle interferograms obtained with the SAO 6 m telescope. The resolved structure consists of a compact core and an extended...
متن کاملNear-infrared Observations of Bl Lacertae Host Galaxies
Multi-band near-infrared images of twelve BL Lacertae objects were obtained with the 2.5m telescope at the Las Campanas Observatory in order to determine the properties of their underlying host galaxies. Resolved emission was clearly detected in eight of the lowest redshift targets (up to z ∼0.3), and was modeled with a de Vaucouleurs r1/4 surface brightness law. We find that the morphologies m...
