Nuclear Dynamics and Star Formation of AGN

We are using adaptive optics on Keck and the VLT to probe the dynamics and star formation in Seyfert and QSO nuclei, obtaining spatial resolutions better than 0.1" in the H- and K-bands. The dynamics are traced via the 2.12um H_2 1-0S(1) line, while the stellar cluster is traced through the CO...
