Unveiling the central parsec region of an active galactic nucleus: The circinus nucleus in the near-infrared with the very large telescope
VLT J- to M'-band adaptive optics observations of the Circinus galaxy on parsec scales resolve a central bright Ks-band source with a FWHM size of 1.9 ± 0.6 pc. This source is only visible at wavelengths longward of 1.6 μm and coincides in position with the peak of the [Si VII] 2.48 μm coronal...
