Molecular line ratio diagnostics and gas kinematics in the AGN host Seyfert galaxy NGC 5033
Selçuk Topal
Abstract:Multiple molecular lines are useful for studying the physical properties of multiphase starforming gas in different types of galaxies. We probe the molecular gas throughout the disc of the spiral galaxy NGC 5033, hosting an active galactic nucleus (AGN), using multiple low-J CO lines [ 12 CO(1-0, 2-1, 3-2 and 13 CO(1-0, 2-1)] and dense gas tracers [HCN(1-0) and HCO + (1-0)]. Firstly, we determine the ratios of the integrated intensity maps and the ratio of intensities in position velocity diagrams. Secondly, w… Show more
