Low-luminosity active galactic nuclei: are they UV faint and radio loud? [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2007
Low-luminosity AGNs are perceived to be radio loud and devoid of a ``big blue bump'', indicating a transition from a radiatively efficient, geometrically thin, accretion disc in high-luminosity AGNs, to a geometrically thick, radiatively inefficient accretion flow at low luminosities and accretion rates.

ON THE ORIGIN OF ULTRAVIOLET EMISSION AND THE ACCRETION MODEL OF LOW-LUMINOSITY ACTIVE GALACTIC NUCLEI

open access: yes, 2010
Low-luminosity active galactic nuclei (LLAGNs) are generally believed to be powered by an inner radiatively inefficient, advection-dominated accretion flow (ADAF), an outer truncated thin disk, and a jet.

Multiwavelength and Environmental Properties of Variability Selected Low-luminosity Active Galactic Nuclei

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present the multiwavelength and environmental properties of 37 variability-selected active galactic nuclei (AGNs), including 30 low-luminosity AGNs (LLAGNs), using a high cadence time-domain survey (All-Sky Automated Survey for SuperNovae) from a ...

A Radio Survey for Linear and Circular Polarization in Low-Luminosity Active Galactic Nuclei [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2002
We conducted a Very Large Array survey of eleven low luminosity active galactic nuclei for linear and circular polarization at 8.4 GHz. We detected circular polarization in one source (M81*) and linear polarization in 3 sources. Sensitivity limits were ~0.1% for both modes of polarization in 9 of 11 sources.

Talin1 Adhesion Morphology and Colocalization With Tensin3 Are Largely Unaffected by Polyacrylamide Substrate Stiffness

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cells sense the stiffness of their extracellular matrix (ECM) and adapt their behavior accordingly. We investigated how ECM stiffness affects the spatial organization of talin1, a key mechanosensitive focal adhesion protein. Using polyacrylamide (PA) hydrogels with tunable stiffnesses (0.2–188 kPa), we analyzed cell morphology, migration ...

The location and kinematics of the emission line regions in Active Galactic Nuclei [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
This thesis contains the results from a study of the optical emission lines of various samples of active galactic nuclei (AGN). We have used three separate techniques to determine the precise kinematics and the relative location of the emission line ...

Mid-infrared Properties of Narrow-line Seyfert 1 Galaxies Detected by LoTSS DR2

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies (NLS1s), a subclass of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in an early stage of the accretion process, are also found to host relativistic jets. However, currently known jetted NLS1s are rare. The majority of NLS1s are undetected

Broadband Multi-wavelength Properties of M87 during the 2017 Event Horizon Telescope Campaign

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2021
In 2017, the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) Collaboration succeeded in capturing the first direct image of the center of the M87 galaxy. The asymmetric ring morphology and size are consistent with theoretical expectations for a weakly accreting ...

Do LINER 2 galaxies harbour low-luminosity active galactic nuclei? [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2001
We use ROSAT HRI spatial data and ASCA spectral measurements for a sample of seven nearby, early type spiral galaxies, to address the question of whether a low-luminosity Active Galactic Nucleus (LLAGN) is present in galaxies that have a LINER 2 classification.
