  1. NGC 4395 - Wikipedia

    NGC 4395 is a nearby low surface brightness spiral galaxy located about 14 million light-years (or 4.3 Mpc) from Earth in the constellation Canes Venatici. [1] . The nucleus of NGC 4395 is active and the galaxy is classified as a Seyfert Type I known for …

  2. Spiral Galaxy NGC 4395 | NOIRLab

    Jun 30, 2020 · NGC 4395 is a spiral galaxy with a very low surface brightness. Unlike most galaxies the center of the galaxy is small and faint. Nearly all galaxies are known to contain a supermassive black hole in the center. NGC 4395 has one of the smallest known such black holes. It is six times smaller than the one at the center of our galaxy, the Milky Way.

  3. NGC 4395 Galaxy (UGC 7524) Facts & Distance - Universe Guide

    NGC 4395 is a Seyfert 2 Galaxy located in the constellation of Canes Venatici in the northern hemisphere. NGC 4395's distance from Earth is 13,897,523.25 light years. NGC 4395 is called NGC 4395 in the New General Catalogue (NGC).

  4. Hubble Gazes at the Home of an Enormous Black Hole

    May 2, 2023 · NGC 4395 is one of the closest and dimmest known Seyfert galaxies. The larger Hubble image shows the central region of NGC 4395 along with a smaller Digital Sky Survey inset image, lower-left corner, that reveals the location of the …

  5. NGC4395, known to harbor an AGN. NGC4395 is an ideal candidate to investigate the nature of dwarf AGN, as it is nearby (d ≈ 4.4 Mpc) enough to allow a close look at its nucleus. The optical data were obtained with the Gemini GMOS-IFU covering the 4500A to 7300˚ ˚A spectral range at a spatial resolution of 10 pc. The J and K-

  6. Galaxy NGC 4395 - Deep⋆Sky Corner

    NGC 4395 is a galaxy of the morphological type SAB, an intermediate form from a spiral to a barred spiral. It is a Seyfert 2 galaxy with a bright core but low surface brightness. The brightest of the active star-forming regions have their own NGC numbers. Distances range from 3.9 Mpc to 4.7 Mpc (about 12 to 15 million light years). [145]

  7. NGC 4395 - Spiral Galaxy in Canes Venatici | TheSkyLive.com

    NGC 4395 is a Spiral Galaxy in the Canes Venatici constellation. NGC 4395 is situated north of the celestial equator and, as such, it is more easily visible from the northern hemisphere. Given its visual magnitude of 10.11, NGC 4395 is visible with the help of a binocular with a 80mm aperture or a small telescope.

  8. Star Formation in the Dwarf Seyfert Galaxy NGC 4395 ... - IOPscience

    Jun 13, 2023 · We present a detailed multiwavelength study of star formation in the dwarf galaxy NGC 4395, which hosts an active galactic nucleus (AGN). From our observations with the Ultra-Violet Imaging Telescope, we have compiled a catalog of 284 star-forming (SF) regions, out of which we could detect 120 SF regions in H α observations.

  9. NGC4395 is a nearby dwarf galaxy situated at a distance of 4.3Mpc (Thim et al. 2004). It hosts a low-luminosity Seyfert type AGN and is powered by a black hole with a mass between 104 and 105 M e. For example, from reverberation mapping observations in the UV band carried out with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph on the Hubble Space

  10. [2206.10964] Is there a sub-parsec-scale jet base in the nearby …

    Jun 22, 2022 · NGC 4395 is a dwarf galaxy at a distance of about 4.3 Mpc (scale: ~0.021 pc mas −1). It hosts an intermediate-mass black hole (IMBH) with a mass between ~10 4 and ~10 5 solar masses.
