Taurus Observations of the Emission-Line Velocity Field of Centaurus A (NGC 5128)
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 04 August 2017
Abstract
Using TAURUS – an Imaging Fabry Perot system in conjunction with the IPCS on the AAT, we have studied the velocity field of the Ha emission line at a spatial resolution of 1.7″ over the dark lane structure of Centaurus A. The derived velocity field is quite symmetrical and strongly suggests that the emission line material is orbiting the elliptical component, as a warped disc.
