High-Frequency and High-Resolution VLBI Observations of GHz Peaked Spectrum Objects

open access: yesGalaxies, 2023
Observational studies of GHz peaked spectrum (GPS) sources contribute to the understanding of the radiative properties and interstellar environment of host galaxies.

THE BLACK HOLE MASS SCALE OF CLASSICAL AND PSEUDO BULGES IN ACTIVE GALAXIES [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The mass estimator used to calculate black hole (BH) masses in broad-line active galactic nuclei (AGNs) relies on a virial coefficient (the “f factor”) that is determined by comparing reverberation-mapped (RM) AGNs with measured bulge stellar velocity ...

Spectral Properties of AGN with Very Weak [O III] Lines [PDF]

open access: yesSerbian Astronomical Journal, 2011
The spectral properties of a sample of 58 Active GalacticNuclei (AGN) spectra, in which emission [O~III] $lambdalambda$4959, 5007 AA lines are weak or totally absent, are analyzed.

The host galaxies of active galactic nuclei

open access: yes, 2003
We examine the properties of the host galaxies of 22 623 narrow-line active galactic nuclei (AGN) with 0.02 < z < 0.3 selected from a complete sample of 122 808 galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey.

Starburst–AGN mixing – II. Optically selected active galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We use 4 galaxies from the Calar Alto Legacy Integral Field Area (CALIFA) survey with clear signs of accretion onto supermassive black holes to investigate the relative contribution of star-formation and active galactic nucleus (AGN) activity to the line-

Larger $λ_R$ in the disc of isolated active spiral galaxies than in their non-active twins [PDF]

open access: yesA&A 639, L9 (2020), 2020
We present a comparison of the spin parameter $\lambda_R$, measured in a region dominated by the galaxy disc, between 20 pairs of nearby (0.005$<$z$<$0.03) seemingly isolated twin galaxies differing in nuclear activity. We find that 80--82% of the active galaxies show higher values of $\lambda_R$ than their corresponding non-active twin(s), indicating ...

Galaxy Evolution in the Radio Band: The Role of Star-forming Galaxies and Active Galactic Nuclei [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We investigate the astrophysics of radio-emitting star-forming galaxies and active galactic nuclei (AGNs) and elucidate their statistical properties in the radio band, including luminosity functions, redshift distributions, and number counts at sub-mJy ...

The host galaxies and classification of active galactic nuclei [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We present an analysis of the host properties of 85224 emission-line galaxies selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. We show that Seyferts and LINERs form clearly separated branches on the standard optical diagnostic diagrams.

Dichotomy in host environments and signs of recycled AGN [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We analyse the relation between AGN host properties and large scale environment for a representative red and blue AGN host galaxy sample selected from the DR4 SDSS. A comparison is made with two carefully constructed control samples of non-active galaxies, covering the same redshift range and color baseline.

The star formation rates of active galactic nuclei host galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Using artificial neural network (ANN) predictions of total infra-red luminosities (LIR), we compare the host galaxy star formation rates (SFRs) of ~21,000 optically selected active galactic nuclei (AGN), 466 low excitation radio galaxies (LERGs) and 721 ...
