NGC 5728은 Seyfert 2 은하로 활동성 은하핵을 가지고 있다. 우리는 기존에 연구된 NGC5728에 관한 자료 중 중심핵 주변의 ring구조의 형성 원인과 과정을 알아보기 위해 시뮬레이션을 하고자 한다. 이 연구를 위해 CFHT 3.6-m의 OASIS로 은하의 중심부 $12{\times}10arcsec2$ 영역을 관측한 자료를 이용하였다. NGC 5728의 중심핵 주변의 구조는 [OIII]5007 영상에서는 두개의 중심핵이 나타나며, $H{\alpha}$ 영상에서는 NW방향에 ring구조가 뚜렷하게 나타난다. 이러한 ring구조의 반경은 ～5.4arcsec, 기울기 ${\sim}50^{\circ}$으로 은하면과 거의 나란하게 위치해 있는 것으로 예상되며 시계방향으로 회전하고 있음이 알려졌다. 관측 자료는 ring의 NW방향은 다가오고 SE방향은 멀어지고 있음이 보여지며 이러한 ring의 형성 원인이 무엇인지에 대하여 조사하였고 ring의 기울기와 은하면의 기울기의 구조적 위치를 추가적으로 알아보고자 한다. 시뮬레이션 프로그램으로는 GADGET-2를 이용하였으며 IDL로 시뮬레이션 결과를 볼 수 있도록 하였다. 현재 관찰된 ring구조가 나타날 수 있도록 여러 조건하에서 연구를 수행중이다.

The distribution and kinematic information of the continuum, $H{\alpha},\;H{\beta}$, [O III], & [N II] images based on spectroscopic data secured with the OASIS at the Hawaii CFHT 3.6m telescope have been analyzed to study the physical characteristics of NGC 5728. The three bright regions-northwestern knot, southeastern knot, and the nucleus-exist within a $15"{\times}12"$ sky area which seem to indicate gas flows along the northwestern or western direction from the nucleus. We find that the center of a 10" diameter ring is at the northwestern knot, not at the galactic center. To further analyze the formation mechanism of such a ring, the kinematics of the nucleus and knot have been studied and the central structure of the Active Galactic Nuclei has been investigated by comparing various emission images.

We investigated the circumnuclear region of the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 5728, using the CFHT 3.6 m OASIS $[S_{II}]$, $[O_{III}]$ & $H\beta$ spectral images complemented with the IUE spectra. The physical condition of the circumnuclear zone has been derived: the gas density (indicated by $[S_{II}]$6716/31 ratio) around the C core is generally similar to that around the NW core, i.e., $\sim500cm^{-3}$. However, there appears to be evidence of a higher density shell in front of the NW core, $\sim10^4cm^{-3}$ at -250 km $s^-1$. The IUE $Si_{III}$]1892/$C_{III}$]1909 ratio implies a possible presence of a broad emission region of gas densities of $\sim10^{10}cm^{-3}$. The SE cone and surrounding area show several prominent features, while the NW cone does not show any particular structure: we identified three prominent blobs in the SE cone and one possible candidate in the NW cone. The outflow activities exist within the relatively large conic opening angle. We discussed the possibility of inflow or outflow activities of blobs found in the circumnuclear region of NGC 5728. The gas around two cores, two cones, and several blobs, is likely to be excited by the AGN hot source(s).

Using VLT/MUSE and ALMA data, we present a spatially-resolved analysis of the central part of NGC 5728. We find enhanced star formation (${\sim}1.8M{\odot}/yr/kpc2$) at a region where AGN gas outflows intersect the star formation ring. In contrast, significantly weaker CO emission (~3.5 times) is found at the same region compared to other regions in ring, suggesting positive AGN feedback on star formation. On the other hand, we detect gas outflows outside of the spiral arms, implying that the inflowing gas in the arms is removed (i.e., negative feedback). Even though the positive and negative feedback are expected at the central part of NGC 5728, the impact of the AGN feedback in galaxy scale may be insignificant.
