The fundamental plane of black hole activity for low-luminosity radio active galactic nuclei across 0

Astronomy & Astrophysics
The fundamental plane of black hole activity describes the correlation between radio luminosity ($L_ R $), X-ray luminosity ($L_ X $), and black hole mass ($M_ BH $). It reflects a connection between the accretion disc and the jet.

Starbursts in Low Luminosity Active Galactic Nuclei

2005
Low Luminosity Active Galactic Nuclei (LLAGN), which comprise low-ionization nuclear emission-line regions (LINERs) and transition-type objects (TOs), represent the most common type of nuclear activity. Here, we search for spectroscopic signatures of starbursts and post-starbursts in LLAGN, and investigate their relationship to the ionization mechanism

11.17. Radio emission from low-luminosity active galactic nuclei

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1998
“Low-luminosity” active galactic nuclei (LLAGNs) typically have ≳ mag, as opposed to −18 to −30 mag for luminous Seyfert 1 nuclei and QSOs. The physical origin of the class of emission-line nuclei known as low-ionization nuclear emission-line regions (LINERs; Heckman 1980) remains controversial.

Revealing Low Luminosity Active Galactic Nuclei (ReveaLLAGN)

2021
JWST will be the most sensitive tool ever built for studying the accretion onto supermassive black holes (SMBHs) at the centers of galaxies. While quasars and bright active galactic nuclei (AGN) provide spectacular examples of this accretion, a vast majority of galaxies have black holes accreting at much lower rates.

Ly  constraints on very low luminosity active galactic nuclei

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2006
Recent surveys have detected Lya emission from z = 4.5 to 6.5 at luminosities as low as 10 41 erg s -1 . There is good evidence that low numbers of active galactic nuclei (AGN) are among observed faint Lya emitters. Combining these observations with an empirical relation between the intrinsic Lya and B-band luminosities of AGN, we obtain an upper ...

Physical Conditions in Low-Luminosity Active Galactic Nuclei

1984
Physical conditions in the nuclei of emission-line galaxies are investigated by analyzing their continua and optical emission lines. The strength and shape of the nonstellar continuum is derived for nine Seyfert galaxies. As in QSOs, it is described by a power law with slope ~ -1.1, and in the most luminous objects it flattens at blue and UV ...

The Stellar Populations of Low-Luminosity Active Galactic Nuclei. II. Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph Observations

, 2004
We present a study of the stellar populations of low-luminosity active galactic nuclei (LLAGNs). Our goal is to search for spectroscopic signatures of young and intermediate-age stars and to investigate their relationship with the ionization mechanism in

No Evidence for Feedback: Unexceptional Low-ionization Winds in Host Galaxies of Low Luminosity Active Galactic Nuclei at Redshift z ∼ 1

, 2017
We study winds in 12 X-ray AGN host galaxies at . We find, using the low-ionization Fe ii λ2586 absorption in the stacked spectra, that the probability distribution function (PDF) of the centroid-velocity shift in AGNs has 50th (median), 16th, and 84th ...

The Luminosity Function of Quasars and Low Luminosity Active Galactic Nuclei

1986
The quasar luminosity function is extended to include the nuclear luminosities of Seyfert 1 galaxies. The model is fitted to the (total) luminosity data for the active galaxies from a complete flux-limited survey. A good fit is obtained with dN/dL∝L-1.2, matching onto the steeper quasar luminosity function near MB=-22.
