Active galaxies contain a supermassive black hole at their center that grows by accreting matter from the surrounding galaxy. The accretion process in about central 10 parsecs has not been directly resolved previous observations because of small apparent angular sizes involved. We observed active nucleus Circinus Galaxy using submillimeter interferometry. A dense inflow molecular gas was evident on subparsec scales. calculated less than 3% this is accreted hole, with rest being ejected...

A ``lotus-like'' multi-shell is launched from inner part ($r \lesssim 0.04$ pc) of geometrically thin disk, it repeatedly steadily produces shocks as mass accretion continues through disk to center.

A recent hydrodynamic model, "radiation-driven fountain model" (Wada et al. 2016), presented a dynamical picture that active galactic nuclei (AGNs) tori sustain their geometrical thickness by gas circulation around AGNs, and previous papers confirmed this is consistent with multi-wavelength observations of nearby Seyfert galaxies. Recent near-infrared implied CO rovibrational absorption lines ($\Delta J=\pm1$, $v=0-1$, $\lambda \sim 4.7$ $\mathrm{\mu m}$) could probe physical properties the...

In astrophysical jets observed in active galactic nuclei and microquasars, the energy exchange rate by Coulomb collision is insufficient for thermal equilibrium between ions electrons. Therefore, it necessary to consider difference ion temperature electron temperature. We present results of two-temperature magnetohydrodynamics(MHD) simulations demonstrate effects coupling. It assumed that dissipation heats only ions. find temperatures are separated through shocks. Since entropy increased at...

We examine the two-fluid cosmic-ray magnetohydrodynamic (CR MHD) equations to take account of dynamical effects cosmic rays (CRs) in simplest form. For simplicity we assume that pressure CRs is proportional energy density, Pcr = (γcr − 1)Ecr, where γcr denotes adiabatic index CRs. find fully conservative form CR MHD and derive Rankine-Hugoniot relation for a shock. One component describes conservation total number density defined as ρcr Pcr1/γcr. also Riemann solution, which provides us...

Recent submillimeter observations have revealed signs of pc-scale molecular inflow and atomic outflow in the nearest Seyfert 2 galaxy, Circinus galaxy. To verify gas kinematics suggested by these observations, we performed line transfer calculations based on a physics-based 3D radiation-hydrodynamic model, which has been compared with multi-wavelength this paper series. The major axis position-velocity diagram (PVD) CO(3-2) reproduces observed faint emission at systemic velocity, our confirm...
