Three quasars, Ton 616, 4C 37.43 and PKS 2251+113 (Stockton and MacKenty 1987) were observed in 1992 at the 3.6 m CFH telescope with the Integral Field Spectrograph TIGER (Courtès et al. 1987, Pécontal 1991) under subarcsecond seeing (0.5 - 0.7”). The spatial sampling was 0.39” in a field 7 by 7 ”, and the spectral resolution 8 ÅFWHM in the Hβ - [OIII]λ 5007 wavelength region (in the rest frame of the objects). The scaling is 4.5, 5.9 and 5.3 kpc.arcsec−1 for Ton 616, 4C 37.43 and PKS 2251+113 respectively (H0 = 75 km.s−1.Mpc−1). The data were reduced with the software developed at Observatoire de Lyon by Rousset, Bacon and Pécontal (Rousset 1992). A detailed account of our results is reported in Durret et al. 1994.

AbstractI report recent results on the kinematics of the inner few hundred parsecs (pc) around nearby active galactic nuclei (AGN) at a sampling of a few pc to a few tens of pc, using optical and near-infrared (near-IR) integral field spectroscopy obtained with the Gemini telescopes. The stellar kinematics of the hosts — comprised mostly of spiral galaxies — are dominated by circular rotation in the plane of the galaxy. Inflows with velocities of ~50 km s−1 have been observed along nuclear spiral arms in (optical) ionized gas emission for low-luminosity AGN and in (near-IR) molecular gas emission for higher-luminosity AGN. We have also observed gas rotating in the galaxy plane, sometimes in compact (few tens of pc) disks which may be fuelling the AGN. Outflows have been observed mostly in ionized gas emission from the narrow-line region, whose flux distributions and kinematics frequently correlate with radio flux distributions. Channel maps along the emission-line profiles reveal velocities as high as ~ 600 km s−1. Mass outflow rates in ionized gas range from 10−2 to 10−3M⊙ yr−1 and are 10–100 times larger than the mass accretion rates on to the AGN, supporting an origin for the bulk of the outflow in gas from the galaxy plane entrained by a nuclear jet or accretion disk wind.

Our understanding of the structure, composition and evolution of galaxies hasstrongly improved in the last decades, mostly due to new results based on large spectro-scopic and imaging surveys. In particular, the nature of ionized gas, its ionization mech-anisms, its relation with the stellar properties and chemical composition, the existence ofscaling relations that describe the cycle between stars and gas, and the corresponding evo-lution patterns have been widely explored and described. More recently, the introduction ofadditional techniques, in particular integral field spectroscopy, and their use in large galaxysurveys, have forced us to re-interpret most of those recent results from a spatially resolvedperspective. This review is aimed to complement recent efforts to compile and summarizethis change of paradigm in the interpretation of galaxy evolution. To this end we replicatepublished results, and present novel ones, based on the largest compilation of IFS data ofgalaxies in the nearby universe to date.

AbstractWe used near-IR integral field spectroscopy, obtained with Gemini NIFS and GNIRS integral field units (IFUs), to map the ionized and molecular flux distributions and kinematics in the central few hundreds of parsecs of Seyfert galaxies. We conclude that the molecular gas emission can be considered a tracer of the feeding of the AGN, while the emission of the ionized gas a tracer of its feedback.
