Morphologies of low-redshift AGN host galaxies: what role does AGN luminosity play?

open access: yes, 2013
Mergers of galaxies have been suspected to be a major trigger of AGN activity for many years. However, when compared to carefully matched control samples, AGN host galaxies often show no enhanced signs of interaction.

Consequences of Mechanical and Radiative Feedback from Black Holes in Disc Galaxy Mergers

open access: yes, 2014
We study the effect of AGN mechanical and radiation feedback on the formation of bulge dominated galaxies via mergers of disc galaxies. The merging galaxies have mass-ratios of 1:1 to 6:1 and include pre-existing hot gaseous halos to properly account for

Low-luminosity AGN and Normal Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Low-luminosity AGN (with X-ray luminosity < 1e42 ergs/s) far outnumber ordinary AGN, and are therefore perhaps more relevant to our understanding of AGN phenomena and the relationship between AGN and host galaxies.

Active Galactic Nuclei Selection and Demographics: A New Age with JWST/MIRI

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Understanding the coevolution of supermassive black holes and their host systems requires a comprehensive census of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) behavior across a wide range of redshift, luminosity, obscuration level, and galaxy properties.

X-ray bright active galactic nuclei in massive galaxy clusters III: New insights into the triggering mechanisms of cluster AGN

open access: yes, 2014
We present the results of a new analysis of the X-ray selected Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) population in the vicinity of 135 of the most massive galaxy clusters in the redshift range of 0.2 < z < 0.9 observed with Chandra.

Mapping AGN winds: A connection between radio-mode AGNs and the AGN feedback cycle

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
We present a kinematic analysis based on the large integral field spectroscopy (IFS) dataset of SDSS-IV MaNGA (Sloan Digital Sky Survey/Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory; ∼10 000 galaxies). We have compiled a diverse sample of 594 unique active galactic nuclei (AGNs), identified through a variety of independent selection techniques ...

Galaxies Lighting Up: Discovery of Seventy New Turn-on Changing-look Active Galactic Nuclei

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
“Changing-look active galactic nuclei” (CL AGN) show dramatic, rapid changes in optical/UV continuum and broad-line emission. The majority of CL AGN have been found dimming as “turn-off” CL AGN because most selection methods start from samples of ...

NoSOCS in SDSS. VI. The Environmental Dependence of AGN in Clusters and Field in the Local Universe

open access: yes, 2017
We investigated the variation in the fraction of optical active galactic nuclei (AGN) hosts with stellar mass, as well as their local and global environments.
