Radio Loud AGN Unification: Connecting Jets and Accretion [PDF]

open access: diamondEPJ Web of Conferences, 2013
While only a fraction of Active Galactic Nuclei are observed to host a powerful relativistic jet, a cohesive picture is emerging that radio-loud AGN may represent an important phase in the evolution of galaxies and the growth of the central super-massive

Quasi-periodic oscillations of GHz-band polarization in a black hole [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
Relativistic jets from accreting black holes radiate non-thermal emission which is highly variable in different time scales. Previous studies on black holes of different mass scales, including supermassive and stellar-mass black holes, only report flux ...

ENVIRONMENT DENSITY OF A GIANT RADIO STRUCTURE FOR GALAXIES AND QUASARS WITH STEEP RADIO SPECTRA [PDF]

open access: yesRadio Physics and Radio Astronomy, 2021
Purpose: Estimate of the environment density of giant (with the linear size of about megaparsec) radio structures for galaxies and quasars with steep low-frequency spectra taken from the UTR-2 catalogue. Study of the cosmological evolution of environment

Wide-Angle-Tail (WAT) Radio Sources

open access: yesGalaxies, 2023
We review the properties of Wide-Angle-Tail (WAT) radio sources. The WAT radio sources are powerful, bent radio sources typically associated with the dominant galaxy in a cluster or group.

Radio Emission of Nearby Early-type Galaxies in the Low and Very Low Radio Luminosity Range

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We analyze radio continuum emission of early-type galaxies with dynamical measurements of central supermassive black hole (SMBH) masses and well-characterized large-scale environments, but regardless of the exact level of the nuclear activity.

What Drives the Ionized Gas Outflows in Radio-Quiet AGN?

open access: yesGalaxies, 2023
We review the mechanisms driving the ionized gas outflows in radio-quiet (RQ) AGN. Although it constitutes ∼90% of the AGN population, what drives these outflows in these AGNs remains an open question. High-resolution imaging and integral field unit (IFU)

Offsets between X-Ray and Radio Components in X-Ray Jets: The AtlasX

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
The X-ray emission mechanism of powerful extragalactic jets—which has important implications for their environmental impacts—is poorly understood. The X-ray/radio positional offsets in the individual features of jets provide important clues.

Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 Galaxies With Absorbed Jets–Insights From Radio Spectral Index Maps

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021
Narrow-line Seyfert 1 (NLS1) galaxies are active galactic nuclei (AGN) believed to be in the early stages of their evolution. A fraction of them have been found to host relativistic jets.

Finding Rare Quasars: VLA Snapshot Continuum Survey of FRI Quasar Candidates Selected from the LOFAR Two-Metre Sky Survey (LoTSS)

open access: yesGalaxies, 2021
The radiative and jet power in active galactic nuclei is generated by accretion of material on to supermassive galactic-centre black holes. For quasars, where the radiative power is by definition very high, objects with high radio luminosities form 10 ...

Chandra Discovery of 10 New X-Ray Jets Associated With FR II Radio Core-Selected AGNs in the MOJAVE Sample [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The Chandra X-ray observatory has proven to be a vital tool for studying high-energy emission processes in jets associated with Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN).We have compiled a sample of 27 AGN selected from the radio flux-limited MOJAVE (Monitoring of ...
