Radio properties of the quasi-periodic eruption source RXJ1301.9+2747 at parsec scales

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Quasi-periodic eruptions (QPEs) are repeating soft X-ray flares associated with galactic nuclei. Several recent works have found evidence that the accretion flow in the galactic nuclei of QPEs is of recent origin, and that it is unlike canonical active ...

The role of environment in the observed Fundamental Plane of radio active galactic nuclei [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2018
The optical Fundamental Plane of black hole activity relates radio continuum luminosity of Active Galactic Nuclei to [O III] luminosity and black hole mass. We examine the environments of low redshift ($z<0.2$) radio-selected AGN, quantified through galaxy clustering, and find that halo mass provides similar mass scalings to black hole mass in the ...

Recognizing Blazars Using Radio Morphology from the VLA Sky Survey

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Blazars are radio-loud active galactic nuclei whose jets have a very small angle to our line of sight. Observationally, the radio emissions are mostly compact or compact-core with a one-sided jet.

Here Be SDRAGNs—Spiral Galaxies Hosting Large Double Radio Sources

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We present a sample of large double radio sources hosted by spiral galaxies (spiral double radio active galactic nuclei, SDRAGNs). Candidates were initially selected through the Radio Galaxy Zoo project and subsequently refined using Sloan Digital Sky ...

VaDAR: Varstrometry for Dual AGN Using Radio Interferometry

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Binary and dual active galactic nuclei (AGNs) are an important observational tool for studying the formation and dynamical evolution of galaxies and supermassive black holes.

Deciphering Radio Emissions from Accretion Disk Winds in Radio-quiet Active Galactic Nuclei

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Unraveling the origins of radio emissions from radio-quiet active galactic nuclei (RQ AGNs) remains a pivotal challenge in astrophysics. One potential source of this radiation is the shock interaction between AGN disk winds and the interstellar medium ...

Do All the Quasars and High-excitation Radio Galaxies (HERGs) in the 3CRR Catalog Contain a Magnetically Arrested Disk (MAD)?

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Based on the magnetization, an accretion disk with a large-scale magnetic field can be separated into either standard and normal evolution or magnetically arrested disk (MAD), which are difficult to identify from observations. It is still unclear whether

Constraining Star Formation in M87 Using Deep Hubble Space Telescope UV Data

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We analyzed the deepest Hubble Space Telescope F275W ultraviolet (UV) imaging of M87 to obtain the most robust constraints on its star formation rate (SFR) and star formation history (SFH).

Revisiting Radio Variability of the Blazar 3C 454.3

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We examine lengthy radio light curves of the flat spectrum radio galaxy 3C 454.3 for possible quasiperiodic oscillations (QPOs). The data used in this work were collected at five radio frequencies, 4.8, 8.0, 14.5, 22.0, and 37.0 GHz between 1979 and 2013
