A #UniversityofKansas #survey of a swath of the #cosmos using the #JamesWebbSpaceTelescope has revealed #activegalacticnuclei (#AGN)—#supermassiveblackholes that are rapidly increasing in size—are rarer than many #astronomers had assumed previously.

Astronomers discover a luminous nuclear transient
"[A] group of astronomers led by Sam Oates of the University of Birmingham, U.K., has conducted follow-up Swift observations of a gravitational wave alert known as S190930t in order to find its electromagnetic counterpart."

At 2pm PT (in 30 min) we'll have our #AGN Science Interest Group splinter at #AAS241 in Rm 211. We've planned an interactive session to discuss science, facilities, and SOTP. Check out the agenda (nevermind the typo in my name) and connection info here! #Astrodon
https://cor.gsfc.nasa.gov/copag/AAS_Jan2023/AAS2023-agenda.php
Now for today's #AAS241 highlights! This morning's plenary was given by Allison #Kirkpatrick and while #blackholes / #agn / #quasars aren't really my thing I did learn something about how we classify those.

As for me, I'll have my first #AAS241 press conference appearance on Monday 10:15-11:15am (Rm 307/308, or via YouTube livestream for non-registrants), #AGN Science Interest Group splinter session that I'm co-organizing on Wednesday afternoon 2-3:30pm (Rm 211, or via NASA webex connection), and my 418.07 talk on Thursday morning 11-11:10am (Rm 602/603).
Hope to see you all there - safe travels to Seattle! #Astrodon

Putting it altogether, our simple model has the central #AGN driving a highly ionized wind toward us. This outflow plows and deposits energy into the dense ISM via shocks, releasing [FeII] into the gas phase and heating molecular H2 -- all inside the tilted rotating star-forming ring. 9/
