Massive galaxies with very young AGN

open access: yes, 2007
Gigahertz Peaked Spectrum (GPS) radio galaxies are generally thought to be the young counterparts of classical extended radio sources and live in massive ellipticals.

Environments of high and low excitation radio galaxies

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Aims. Active galactic nuclei (AGNs) play a crucial role in shaping galaxy evolution through their feedback mechanisms. Low-excitation radio galaxies (LERGs) and high-excitation radio galaxies (HERGs) are thought to exhibit distinct feedback modes, and ...

The Role of Active Galactic Nucleus Winds in Galaxy Formation: Connecting AGN Outflows at Low Redshifts to the Formation/Evolution of Their Host Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Using Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) spectra, we applied an automatic method to search for outflows (OFs) in three large samples of narrow-line active galactic nuclei (AGN) at low redshifts ( z < 0.4), separated into three spectral activity classes ...

The Effects of an AGN on Host Galaxy Colour and Morphology Measurements

open access: yes, 2010
We assess the effects of simulated active galactic nuclei (AGNs) on the colour and morphology measurements of their host galaxies. To test the morphology measurements, we select a sample of galaxies not known to host AGNs and add a series of point ...

Are the hosts of VLBI selected radio-AGN different to those of radio-loud AGN?

open access: yes, 2016
Recent studies have found that radio-AGN selected by radio-loudness show little difference in terms of their host galaxy properties when compared to non-AGN galaxies of similar stellar mass and redshift.

ALMA/SCUBA-2 COSMOS Survey: Properties of X-Ray- and SED-selected Active Galactic Nuclei in Bright Submillimeter Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We investigate the properties of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in the brightest submillimeter galaxies (SMGs) in the COSMOS field. We utilize the bright sample of the ALMA/SCUBA-2 COSMOS Survey (AS2COSMOS), which consists of 260 SMGs with S _870 _μ _m  =

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.
