New JWST observations of Centaurus A detect H2 lines up to S(8) and map a warm molecular disk with a 20-pc cavity aligned to the jet, filamentary high-excitation structures, S-shaped kinematics, and an inward streamer, yielding a warm H2 mass of 5.6e5 solar masses heated by shocks.
New NIR diagnostic diagrams using [C I]/Paγ and H2 1-0 O(5)/PAH 3.3μm ratios correlate with radiation field hardness and distinguish star formation, AGN, and shock excitation in galaxy nuclei.
JWST spectroscopy reveals radio jets in nearby AGN drive multiphase ISM turbulence and shock-dominated H2 excitation both along and perpendicular to the jet direction.
