The Interplay between Radio AGN Activity and Their Host Galaxies

Galaxies, 2023
Radio activity in AGN (Active Galactic Nuclei) produce feedback on the host galaxy via the impact of the relativistic jets on the circumnuclear gas. Although radio jets can reach up to several times the optical radius of the host galaxy, in this review ...

RADIO DETECTION OF RADIO-QUIET GALAXIES [PDF]

The Astronomical Journal, 2008
We investigate the radio emission of ~185,000 quiescent (optically unclassifiable) galaxies selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). By median-stacking FIRST cutouts centered on the optically-selected sources, we are able to reach flux densities down to the 10s of microJy.

Radio galaxy zoo EMU: towards a semantic radio galaxy morphology taxonomy

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2023
ABSTRACT We present a novel natural language processing (NLP) approach to deriving plain English descriptors for science cases otherwise restricted by obfuscating technical terminology. We address the limitations of common radio galaxy morphology classifications by applying this approach.

Powerful Yet Lonely: Is 3C 297 a High-redshift Fossil Group?

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2022
The environment of the high-redshift ( z = 1.408), powerful radio-loud galaxy 3C 297 has several distinctive features of a galaxy cluster. Among them, a characteristic halo of hot gas revealed by Chandra X-ray observations.

The Environments of Radio Galaxies [PDF]

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1996
In the unified schemes of AGNs BL Lac objects are believed to be Fanaroff-Riley (FR) type I radio galaxies with a relativistic jet aligned to the observer's line of sight (e.g. Urry & Padovani 1995). Kollgaard et al. (1992) and Owen et al. (1995) suggest some FR II sources can also be BL Lac parents. Clearly, isotropic properties such as the galaxy

On the environments of giant radio galaxies [PDF]

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2021
ABSTRACT We test the hypothesis that environments play a key role in enabling the growth of enormous radio structures spanning more than 700 kpc, an extreme population of radio galaxies called giant radio galaxies (GRGs). To achieve this, we explore (1) the relationships between the occurrence of GRGs and the surface number density of ...

Jets in FR0 radio galaxies

Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2023
Context.The local radio-loud AGN population is dominated by compact sources named FR0s. These sources show features, for example the host type, the mass of the supermassive black hole (SMBH), and the multi-band nuclear characteristics, that are similar to those of FRI radio galaxies.

The fundamental plane of radio galaxies [PDF]

Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2001
We collected photometrical and dynamical data for 73 low red-shift (z<0.2) Radio Galaxies (LzRG) in order to study their Fundamental Plane (FP). For 22 sources we also present new velocity dispersion data, that complement the photometric data given in our previous study of LzRG (Govoni et al. 2000a). It is found that the FP of LzRG is similar to the

Nonthermal Emissions from a Head–Tail Radio Galaxy in 3D Magnetohydrodynamic Simulations

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present magnetohydrodynamic simulations of a jet–wind interaction in a galaxy cluster and the radio to gamma-ray and neutrino emissions from this “head–tail galaxy.” Our simulation follows the evolution of cosmic-ray (CR) particle spectra with energy ...

Dynamics of Powerful Radio Galaxies

Galaxies, 2023
Analytical models describing the dynamics of lobed radio sources are essential for interpretation of the tens of millions of radio sources that will be observed by the Square Kilometre Array and pathfinder instruments. We propose that historical models can be grouped into two classes in which the forward expansion of the radio source is driven by ...
