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.
Spatially resolved JWST spectroscopy of M82 reveals an average ortho-to-para H2 ratio half the equilibrium value, attributed to short cloud mixing timescales relative to spin conversion and recent rapid heating.
