Statistical Properties of Radio Emission from the Palomar Seyfert Galaxies [PDF]
We have carried out an analysis of the radio and optical properties of a statistical sample of 45 Seyfert galaxies from the Palomar spectroscopic survey of nearby galaxies.

GAMA/WiggleZ: the 1.4 GHz radio luminosity functions of high- and low-excitation radio galaxies and their redshift evolution to z = 0.75 [PDF]
© 2016 The Authors. Published by Oxford University Press on behalf of The Royal Astronomical Society. We present radio active galactic nuclei (AGN) luminosity functions over the redshift range 0.005 < z < 0.75.

Combining LOFAR and Apertif Data for Understanding the Life Cycle of Radio Galaxies
Active galactic nuclei (AGN) at the centres of galaxies can cycle between periods of activity and of quiescence. Characterising the duty-cycle of AGN is crucial for understanding their impact on the evolution of the host galaxy.

Radio galaxies are known to undergo phases of activity, where the stage after the jets have switched off is referred to as the remnant phase. This state can be followed by a restarted phase when the activity reignites. Remnant and restarted radio sources

Compact radio sources and jet-driven AGN feedback in the early Universe: Constraints from integral-field spectroscopy [PDF]
To investigate the impact of radio jets during the formation epoch of their massive host galaxies, we present an analysis of two massive, log(M_stel/ M_sun)~10.6 and 11.3, compact radio galaxies at z=3.5, TNJ0205+2242 and TNJ0121+1320.

Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA): the environments of high- and low- excitation radio galaxies [PDF]
We study the environments of low- and high- excitation radio galaxies (LERGs and HERGs respectively) in the redshift range $0.01 < z < 0.4$, using a sample of 399 radio galaxies and environmental measurements from the Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA ...

Radio AGN in spiral galaxies [PDF]
Radio AGN in the nearby Universe are more likely to be found in galaxies with early-type morphology, the detection rate in spiral or late-type galaxies (LTGs) being around an order of magnitude lower. We combine the mJy Imaging VLBA Exploration at 20 cm (mJIVE-20) survey with the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, to study the relatively rare population of AGN ...

Radio galaxies dominate the high-energy diffuse gamma-ray background [PDF]
It has been suggested that unresolved radio galaxies and radio quasars (sometimes referred to as misaligned active galactic nuclei) could be responsible for a significant fraction of the observed diffuse gamma-ray background.

COLA II - Radio and Spectroscopic Diagnostics of Nuclear Activity in Galaxies [PDF]
We present optical spectroscopic observations of 93 galaxies taken from the infra-red selected COLA (Compact Objects in Low Power AGN) sample. The sample spans the range of far-IR luminosities from normal galaxies to LIRGs.

Alignments of radio galaxies in deep radio imaging of ELAIS N1 [PDF]
We present a study of the distribution of radio jet position angles of radio galaxies over an area of 1 square degree in the ELAIS N1 field. ELAIS N1 was observed with the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope at 612 MHz to an rms noise level of 10 $\mu$Jy and
