Radio observations of active galactic nuclei with mm-VLBI [PDF]

open access: hybridThe Astronomy and Astrophysics Review, 2017
Over the past few decades, our knowledge of jets produced by active galactic nuclei (AGN) has greatly progressed thanks to the development of very-long-baseline interferometry (VLBI).

On the radio dichotomy of active galactic nuclei [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2016
It is still a mystery why only a small fraction of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) contain relativistic jets. Strong magnetic field is a necessary ingredient for jet formation, however, the advection of the external field in a geometrically thin disk is ...

The radio emission from active galactic nuclei [PDF]

open access: greenAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2021
Context. For nearly seven decades, astronomers have been studying active galaxies, that is to say, galaxies with actively accreting central supermassive black holes: active galactic nuclei (AGN).

Unified Schemes for Radio-Loud Active Galactic Nuclei [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
The appearance of active galactic nuclei (AGN) depends so strongly on orientation that our current classification schemes are dominated by random pointing directions instead of more interesting physical properties.

Radio Loud and Radio Quiet Active Galactic Nuclei [PDF]

open access: bronze, 1999
We generated a sample of 409 AGNs for which both the radio luminosity at 5 GHz and the line luminosity in [OIII] 5007 have been measured. The radio luminosity spans a range of ten orders of magnitude, and the [OIII] line luminosity spans a range of eight

Identifying Radio-active Galactic Nuclei among Radio-emitting Galaxies [PDF]

open access: bronzeAstrophysical Journal, 2021
Basing our analysis on ROGUE I, a catalog of over 32,000 radio sources associated with optical galaxies, we provide two diagnostics to select the galaxies where the radio emission is dominated by an active galactic nucleus (AGN), referred to in the paper

X-ray Properties of Radio-Selected Dual Active Galactic Nuclei [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2019
Merger simulations predict that tidally induced gas inflows can trigger kpc-scale dual active galactic nuclei (dAGN) in heavily obscured environments. Previously with the Very Large Array, we have confirmed four dAGN with redshifts between $0.04 < z < 0 ...

Delayed triggering of radio active galactic nuclei in gas-rich minor mergers in the local Universe [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2016
We examine the processes triggering star formation and active galactic nucleus (AGN) activity in a sample of 25 low-redshift (z 107 K) brightness temperature required for an mJIVE-20 detection allows us to unambiguously identify the radio AGN in our ...

Changing-Look AGNs or Short-Lived Radio Sources? [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2017
The evolution of extragalactic radio sources has been a fundamental problem in the study of active galactic nuclei for many years. A standard evolutionary model has been created based on observations of a wide range of radio sources.

Investigating the Star Formation Characteristics of Radio Active Galactic Nuclei [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The coevolution of supermassive black holes and their host galaxies represents a fundamental question in astrophysics. One approach to investigating this question involves comparing the star formation rates (SFRs) of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) with ...
