Black Hole Wind from the NGC 7582 Galaxy
December 16, 2021
Animated image showing the motion of the black hole wind coming from the center of the NGC 7582 active galaxy, via the hot ionized gas detected in the [OIII] doublet spectral lines shown in the right-hand inset. Each map shows the combined light from the stars and gas in thin slices of the MUSE datacube, spanning 1x1 arcmin of the galaxy (about 8kpc on a side, or 26,000 light-years at the distance to NGC 7582).
