A radio-jet-galaxy interaction in 3C 441 [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1998
Multi-wavelength imaging and spectroscopy of the z=0.708 radio galaxy 3C441 and a red aligned optical/infrared component are used to show that the most striking aspect of the radio-optical ``alignment effect'' in this object is due to the interaction of the radio jet with a companion galaxy in the same group or cluster.

Tracing the extreme interplay between radio jets and the ISM in IC 5063 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We report the discovery with the Atacama Pathfinder EXperiment (APEX) of an outflow of molecular gas in the radio-loud Seyfert galaxy IC 5063 (z = 0.0110).

Interaction of jets with the ISM of radio galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysics and Space Science, 2007
We present three dimensional simulations of the interaction of a light hypersonic jet with an inhomogeneous thermal and turbulently supported disk in an elliptical galaxy, including Radio and multi-band X-ray visualisations. These simulations are applicable to the GPS/CSS phase of some extragalactic radio sources. We identify four generic phases in the

KILOPARSEC-SCALE JETS IN THREE RADIO-LOUD NARROW-LINE SEYFERT 1 GALAXIES [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We have discovered kiloparsec-scale extended radio emission in three narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies (NLS1s) in sub-arcsecond resolution 9 GHz images from the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array.

HORIZON-SCALE LEPTON ACCELERATION IN JETS: EXPLAINING THE COMPACT RADIO EMISSION IN M87 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
It has now become clear that the radio jet in the giant elliptical galaxy M87 must turn on very close to the black hole. This implies the efficient acceleration of leptons within the jet at scales much smaller than feasible by the typical dissipative ...

A Unified Theory of Jetted Tidal Disruption Events: From Promptly Escaping Relativistic to Delayed Transrelativistic Jets

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Only a tiny fraction ∼1% of stellar tidal disruption events (TDEs) generate powerful relativistic jets evidenced by luminous hard X-ray and radio emissions.

The Particle Content of Extragalactic Jets [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophys.J.648:200-208,2006, 2006
Recent x-ray and radio data from radio sources in galaxy clusters are used to show that the pdV work required to inflate the radio lobes exceeds all other energy estimates deduced from the radio emission. If the required jet energy density has an isotropic pressure, then in almost all cases the jet cannot be confined by an external medium. This problem

On the efficiency of jet production in radio galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2015
The mechanisms that produce and power relativistic jets are fundamental open questions in black hole (BH) astrophysics. In order to constrain these mechanisms, we analyze the energy efficiency of jet production 'eta' based on archival Chandra observations of 27 nearby, low-luminosity active galactic nuclei. We obtain 'eta' as the ratio of the jet power,

INVESTIGATING PARTICLE ACCELERATION IN PROTOSTELLAR JETS: THE TRIPLE RADIO CONTINUUM SOURCE IN SERPENS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
While most protostellar jets present free–free emission at radio wavelengths, synchrotron emission has also been proposed to be present in a handful of these objects.

A STUDY OF RADIO POLARIZATION IN PROTOSTELLAR JETS [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2016
ABSTRACT Synchrotron radiation is commonly observed in connection with shocks of different velocities, ranging from relativistic shocks associated with active galactic nuclei, gamma-ray bursts, or microquasars, to weakly or non-relativistic flows such as those observed in supernova remnants. Recent observations of synchrotron emission in
