Late time X-ray, IR and radio observations of the tidal disruption event galaxy NGC 5905

Raichur, H; Mousumi Das; Herrero, A. A; Shastri, P; Kantharia, N. G (Springer, 2015-04)

NGC 5905 is one of the few galaxies with no prior evidence for an active galactic nucleus (AGN) in which an X-ray flare was detected by the ROSAT All Sky Survey (RASS) in 1990–1991. Follow-up studies showed that the X-ray ...
Modelling dark matter halo spin using observations and simulations: application to UGC 5288

Ansar, Sioree; Kataria, Sandeep Kumar; Mousumi Das (Oxford University Press on behalf of Royal Astronomical Society, 2023-06)

Dark matter (DM) halo properties are extensively studied in cosmological simulations but are very challenging to estimate from observations. The DM halo density profile of observed galaxies is modelled using multiple ...
Multiwavelength analysis of low surface brightness galaxies to study possible dark matter signature

Low surface brightness (LSB) galaxies have very diffuse, low surface density stellar discs that appear faint in optical images. They are very rich in neutral hydrogen (H I) gas, which extends well beyond the stellar discs. ...
The Nature of jets in double-peaked emission-line AGN in the KISSR sample

Kharb, P; Subramanian, S; Mousumi Das; Vaddi, S; Paragi, Z (IOP Publishing, 2021-10-01)

We present a near-infrared (NIR) imaging study of barred low surface brightness (LSB) galaxies using the TIFR NIR Spectrometer and Imager. LSB galaxies are dark matter dominated, late-type spirals that have low-luminosity ...
Probing galaxy evolution through HI 21-cm emission and absorption: current status and prospects with square kilometre array

One of the major science goals of square kilometre array (SKA) is to understand the role played by atomic hydrogen (HI) gas in the evolution of galaxies throughout cosmic time. The hyperfine transition line of the hydrogen ...
Relativistic Jet Motion in the Radio-quiet LINER Galaxy KISSR 872

Kharb, Preeti; Blackman, Eric G; Clausen-Brown, Eric; Mousumi Das; Schwartz, Daniel A; Siemiginowska, Aneta; Subramanian, S; Vaddi, Sravani (American Astronomical Society, 2024-02-20)

We report superluminal jet motion with an apparent speed of βapp = 1.65 ± 0.57 in the radio-quiet (RQ) lowionization nuclear emission-line region (LINER) galaxy KISSR 872. This result comes from two-epoch phasereferenced ...
The search for binary black holes in Seyferts with double peaked emission lines

Kharb, P; Mousumi Das; Subramanian, S; Paragi, Z (Astronomical Society of India, 2015-04)

We discuss results from very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) observations of two Seyfert galaxies with double peaked emission lines in their SDSS optical spectra. Such AGN are potential candidates for the presence ...
Searching for dual AGN in galaxies with double-peaked emission line spectra using radio observations

Rubinur, K; Mousumi Das; Kharb, P (Oxford University Press on behalf of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019-04)

Supermassive black hole (SMBH) binaries form due to galaxy mergers and minor accretion events. When the SMBHs are accreting, they form dual or binary AGN and can give rise to double-peaked emission lines in the optical ...
Star formation in bulgeless late-type galaxies: clues to their evolution

Mousumi Das; Sengupta, C; Ramya, S; Misra, K (Wiley-Blackwell, 2012-07)

We present Giant Meterwave Radio Telescope 1280-MHz radio continuum observations and follow-up optical studies of the disc and nuclear star formation in a sample of low-luminosity bulgeless galaxies. The main aim is to ...
Starbursts triggered by central overpressure in interacting galaxies

Mousumi Das; Jog, C. J (Astronomical Society of India, 1993)

We present a triggering mechanism for starbursts in the central regions of interacting galaxies. As a disk giant molecular cloud (GMC) falls into the central region of a galaxy following a galaxy encounter, it may be ...
A study of the effect of bulges on bar formation in disc galaxies

Kataria, Sandeep Kumar; Mousumi Das (Oxford University Press on behalf of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2018-04)

We use N-body simulations of bar formation in isolated galaxies to study the effect of bulge mass and bulge concentration on bar formation. Bars are global disc instabilities that evolve by transferring angular momentum ...
