Radio Emission from High-redshift Active Galactic Nuclei in the JADES and CEERS Surveys

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Recent calculations indicate that radio emission from quasars at z ∼ 6–7 could be detected at much earlier stages of evolution, at z ∼ 14–15, by the Next-Generation Very Large Array (ngVLA) and the Square Kilometer Array (SKA).

The ‘harder when brighter’ X-ray behaviour of the low-luminosity active galactic nucleus NGC 7213

open access: yes, 2012
We present the first robust evidence of an anticorrelation between the X-ray photon index, Γ, and the X-ray luminosity in a single low-luminosity active galactic nucleus (LLAGN), NGC 7213.

Gas Accretion from a Neighbouring Galaxy Fuels the Low-luminosity Active Galactic Nucleus in NGC 4278

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
How a seemingly “dead” host galaxy provides fuel for its active galactic nucleus (AGN) remains an unresolved problem. Using the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST), we present a new high-sensitivity atomic-hydrogen (H i ...

Strongly Magnetized Accretion with Low Angular Momentum Produces a Weak Jet

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We study the spherical accretion of magnetized plasma with low angular momentum onto a supermassive black hole, utilizing global general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic simulations.

The optical luminosity function of quasars and low-luminosity active galactic nuclei

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 1987
The optical luminosity function derived from quasars with M(B) less than -23 is extended to include the nuclear luminosities of Seyfert 1 galaxies. The model is fitted to the (total) luminosity data for active galaxies from a complete flux-limited survey.

DUST IN ACTIVE GALACTIC NUCLEI: ANOMALOUS SILICATE TO OPTICAL EXTINCTION RATIOS?

open access: yes, 2014
Dust plays a central role in the unification theory of active galactic nuclei (AGNs). However, little is known about the nature (e.g., size, composition) of the dust that forms a torus around the AGN. In this Letter, we report a systematic exploration of

The hard X-ray luminosity function of high-redshift (3 < z ≲ 5) active galactic nuclei

open access: yes, 2014
We present the hard-band (2-10 keV) X-ray luminosity function (HXLF) of 0.5-2 keV band selected active galactic nuclei (AGN) at high redshift. We have assembled a sample of 141 AGN at 3 = 23 to be 0.54 ± 0.05, with no strong dependence on luminosity ...

Ensemble Variability Properties of Active Galactic Nuclei in the SDSS DR17

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present the results from a study of ∼9600 broadline-selected active galactic nuclei (AGNs) with host galaxies detected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Release 17.

Spectroscopical confirmation of variability-selected active galactic nuclei

open access: yes, 2004
The cosmological evolution of active galactic nuclei (AGN) luminosity function is poorly known at the faint end, since active nuclei fainter than their host galaxies cannot be selected by color techniques.
