NOEMA Detection of Circumnuclear Molecular Gas in X-Ray Weak Dual Active Galactic Nuclei: No Evidence for Heavy Obscuration

NOEMA Detection of Circumnuclear Molecular Gas in X-Ray Weak Dual Active Galactic Nuclei: No Evidence for Heavy Obscuration

Dual active galactic nuclei (AGNs), which are the manifestation of two actively accreting supermassive black holes (SMBHs) hosted by a pair of merging galaxies, are a unique laboratory for studying the physics of SMBH feeding and feedback during an indispensable stage of galaxy evolution. In this wo...
