This galaxy shows significant HCN enhancement with respect to HCO+ and CO in the low-J transitions, which seems to be a common characteristic in AGN environments. Using the ALMA data, we consider the characteristics of the dense gas around this AGN, and search for the mechanism of HCN enhancement. We find a high HCN (J = 4-3) to HCO+ (J = 4-3) line ratio in the nucleus. The upper limit of the brightness temperature ratio of HCN (v2 ˜ 11f, J = 4-3) to HCN (J = 4-3) is 0.08, which indicates that | Free Keywords: | galaxies: active; galaxies: individual (NGC 1097); galaxies: ISM; galaxies: Seyfert | External Publication Status: | published | Document Type: | Article |
