Multifrequency Studies of Active Galactic Nuclei in the Planck Satellite Era

Galaxies, 2016
The multi-epoch single-survey Planck satellite data have given a rare glimpse into how the radio spectra of active galactic nuclei (AGN) evolve in time.

The radio emission from active galactic nuclei [PDF]

Astronomy & 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).

NGC 5252: a pair of radio-emitting active galactic nuclei? [PDF]

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society: Letters, 2016
The X-ray source CXO J133815.6+043255 has counterparts in the UV, optical, and radio bands. Based on the multiband investigations, it has been recently proposed by Kim et al. as a rarely seen off-nucleus ultraluminous X-ray (ULX) source with a black hole

Recurrent radio activity in active galactic nuclei [PDF]

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2012
There has been a growing body of persuasive evidence to indicate that AGN activity, powered by mass accretion onto a supermassive black hole, can involve multiple episodes.

Compact radio cores in radio-quiet active galactic nuclei [PDF]

Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2016
Context: The mechanism of radio emission in radio-quiet (RQ) active galactic nuclei (AGNs) is still debated and might arise from the central AGN, from star formation activity in the host, or from either of these sources. A direct detection of compact and

The origin of radio emission from radio-quiet active galactic nuclei [PDF]

Nature Astronomy, 2019
The central nuclei of galaxies, where supermassive black holes (SMBHs) are thought to reside, can experience phases of activity when they become active galactic nuclei (AGNs).

Investigating the Star Formation Characteristics of Radio Active Galactic Nuclei

The 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 ...

Radio Near-infrared Imaging of Dual Active Galactic Nuclei Candidates

The Astrophysical Journal
We report the results of a pilot study that searched for dual active galactic nuclei (AGN) in local ( z  10 ^8 K) radio sources that indicate the presence of either a parsec-scale-separation dual AGN ( d _sep  ∼ 90 and ∼56 pc, respectively) or a radio ...

The radio dichotomy of active galactic nuclei [PDF]

Publications of the Astronomical Society of Japan, 2022
Abstract The question of radio dichotomy in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) is still in debate, even though it has been discussed for more than 40 years. In order to solve this old riddle, we collect a sample of AGNs with optical B band and radio 6 cm wavelength data to analyze the radio loudness log R. Our results indicate a separation of

X-ray properties of coronal emission in radio quiet active galactic nuclei

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences
Active galactic nuclei (AGN) are powerful sources of panchromatic radiation. All AGN emit in X-rays, contributing around 5%–10% of the AGN bolometric luminosity.
