Why Radio Quiet Quasars are Preferred over Radio Loud Quasars Regardless of Environment and Redshift [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2020
© 2020. The American Astronomical Society. All rights reserved.. Evidence has accumulated suggesting the clustering of radio loud quasars (RLQs) is greater than for radio quiet quasars. We interpret these results in a context in which the fraction of RLQ

Faint radio-loud quasars: clues on their evolution [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2005
The quasar sample selected by cross-correlating the FIRST and the 2dF Quasar Redshift Surveys allows us to explore, for the first time, the faint end of the radio and optical luminosity functions up to z = 2.2.

Intranight optical variability of BL Lacs, radio-quiet quasars and radio-loud quasars [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2005
We report monitoring observations of 20 high-luminosity active galactic nuclei (AGN), 12 of which are radio-quiet quasars (RQQs). Intranight optical variability (INOV) was detected for 13 of the 20 objects, including 5 RQQs. The variations are distinctly

Prospects for Observing High-redshift Radio-loud Quasars in the SKA Era: Paving the Way for 21 cm Forest Observations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The 21 cm forest is a sensitive probe for the early heating process and small-scale structures during the epoch of reionization (EOR), to be realized with the upcoming Square Kilometre Array (SKA). Its detection relies on the availability of radio-bright

Radio-loudness Statistics of Quasars from Quaia-VLASS

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
Quasars are objects of high interest in extragalactic astrophysics, cosmology, and astrometry. One of their useful qualities is their potential radio-loudness.

Correlation between radio and broad-line emission in radio-loud quasars [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1999
We present a correlation between radio and broad-line emission for a sample of radio-loud quasars that supports a close Link between accretion processes and relativistic jets.

Is there a Dichotomy in the Radio Loudness Distribution of Quasars? [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2003
We present a new approach to tackle the issue of radio loudness in quasars. We constrain a (simple) prescription for the intrinsic distribution of radio-to-optical ratios by comparing properties of Monte Carlo simulated samples with those of observed optically selected quasars.

The jet emitting disk‐standard accretion disk model applied to the active galactic nuclei ultra violet–X‐ray correlation

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 344, Issue 4, May 2023., 2023
Abstract The non‐linear correlation between the UV and X‐ray emission observed in active galactic nuclei remains a puzzling question that challenges accretion models. While the UV emission originates from the cold disk, the X‐ray emission is emitted by a hot corona whose physical characteristics and geometry are still highly debated.

Optical and UV properties of a radio‐loud and a radio‐quiet Population A quasar at high redshift

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 343, Issue 1-2, January-February 2022., 2022
Abstract Different properties of quasars may be observed and analyzed through the many ranges of the electromagnetic spectrum. Pioneering studies showed that an “H‐R diagram” for quasars was needed to organize these data, and that more than two dimensions were necessary: a four‐dimensional Eigenvector (4DE1) parameter space was proposed. The 4DE1 makes

Peaked sources and narrow‐line Seyfert 1s: A love story

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 342, Issue 9-10, Page 1066-1070, November-December 2021., 2021
Abstract The first similarities between peaked sources (PS) and narrow‐line Seyfert 1 (NLS1) galaxies were noticed already 20 years ago. Nowadays, it is known that several sources can share both classifications, and that part of the parent population of γ‐ray emitting NLS1s could be hiding among PS.
