Intra-night Optical Variability and Radio Characteristics of Extremely Radio-loud Narrow-line Seyfert 1 Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies (NLS1s) are generally known to be radio-quiet active galactic nuclei, but a tiny subset of them are found to be extremely radio-loud with radio loudness parameter ( R _1.4 GHz ) > 100.

A Sample of Quasars with Strong Nitrogen Emission Lines from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We report on 293 quasars with strong NIV] lambda 1486 or NIII] lambda 1750 emission lines (rest-frame equivalent width > 3 \AA) at 1.7 < z < 4.0 selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Fifth Data Release.

The Jet-Disk Coupling of Seyfert Galaxies from a Complete Hard X-ray Sample

open access: yesUniverse, 2020
We analyze the jet-disk coupling for different subsamples from a complete hard X-ray Seyfert sample to study the coupling indices and their relation to accretion rate.

Optical off-nuclear spectra of quasar hosts and radio galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
We present optical (~3200A to ~9000A) off-nuclear spectra of 26 powerful active galaxies in the redshift range 0.1 < z < 0.3, obtained with the Mayall and William Herschel 4-meter class telescopes.

Black Hole Mass Estimates of Radio Selected Quasars

open access: yes, 2002
The black hole (BH) mass in the centre of AGN has been estimated for a sample of radio-selected flat-spectrum quasars to investigate the relationship between BH mass and radio properties of quasars. We have used the virial assumption with measurements of

Resolving the Powerful Radio-loud Quasar at z ∼ 6 [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2018
We present high angular resolution imaging ($23.9 \times 11.3$ mas, $138.6 \times 65.5$ pc) of the radio-loud quasar PSO~J352.4034$-$15.3373 at $z=5.84$ with the Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) at 1.54 GHz. This quasar has the highest radio-to-optical flux density ratio at such a redshift, making it the radio-loudest source known to date at $z \sim 6$.

The relationship between the emission line, continuum luminosity, and Baldwin effect in blazars

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Aims. This study investigates the relationship between the Mg II λ2798 Å emission line and the 3000 Å continuum luminosity, as well as the Baldwin effect, in a sample of 40’,685 radio-quiet (RQ) quasars and 441 flat spectrum radio quasars (FSRQs ...

IRAS observations of radio-quiet and radio-loud quasars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1984
Observations from 12 to 100 microns are presented of two radio-quiet and three radio-loud quasars. Over this wavelength range, all five have grossly similar continuum energy distributions. The continua of the radio-loud quasars are consistent with synchrotron radiation.

Unveiling New Giant Radio Quasars from the TGSS Sky and Their Large-scale Environment

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
Giant radio quasars (GRQs) are radiatively efficient radio-loud active galactic nuclei that propel large-scale radio jets with projected lengths of more than 0.7 Mpc. We report the discovery of 53 new GRQs within a redshift range of 0.14–2.38, as well as
