Evidence for AGN Feedback in Galaxy Clusters and Groups
Advances in Astronomy, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012 The current generation of flagship X‐ray missions, Chandra and XMM-Newton, has changed our understanding of the so‐called “cool‐core” galaxy clusters and groups. Instead of the initial idea that the thermal gas is cooling and flowing toward the center, the new picture envisages a complex dynamical evolution of the intracluster medium (ICM) regulated by

Gravitational Lensing as a Probe of Cold Dark Matter Subhalos
Advances in Astronomy, Volume 2010, Issue 1, 2010., 2010 In the cold dark matter scenario, dark matter halos are assembled hierarchically from smaller subunits. Some of these subunits are disrupted during the merging process, whereas others survive temporarily in the form of subhalos. A long‐standing problem with this picture is that the number of subhalos predicted by simulations exceeds the number of ...

Radio Loud and Radio Quiet Quasars
, 2016 We discuss 6 GHz JVLA observations covering a volume-limited sample of 178 low redshift ($0.2 < z < 0.3$) optically selected QSOs. Our 176 radio detections fall into two clear categories: (1) About $20$\% are radio-loud QSOs (RLQs) having spectral luminosities $L_6 \gtrsim 10^{\,23.2} \mathrm{~W~Hz}^{-1}$ primarily generated in the active ...

Unveiling Radio Loudness in Quasars
, 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 Case for Two Quasar Populations
Open Astronomy, 2011 We present evidence for two populations of quasars showing distinctly different broad line structure and kinematics. The first evidence for quasar dichotomy involve differences between radio-quiet and radio-loud sources.

Phylogenetic Analyses of Quasars and Galaxies
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2017 Phylogenetic approaches have proven to be useful in astrophysics. We have recently published a Maximum Parsimony (or cladistics) analysis on two samples of 215 and 85 low-z quasars (z < 0.7) which offer a satisfactory coverage of the Eigenvector 1 ...

The compact structure of radio-loud broad absorption line quasars
, 2008 We present the results of EVN+MERLIN very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) polarization observations of eight broad absorption line (BAL) quasars at 1.6 GHz, including four low-ionization BAL quasars (LoBALs) and four high-ionization BAL quasars ...

A Powerful Radio-loud Quasar at the End of Cosmic Reionization [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2018 Abstract We present the discovery of the radio-loud quasar PSO J352.4034–15.3373 at z = 5.84 ± 0.02. This quasar is the radio brightest source known, by an order of magnitude, at z ∼ 6 with a flux density in the range of 8–100 mJy from 3 GHz to 230 MHz and a radio loudness parameter

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We constrain the emission mechanisms responsible for the prodigious electromagnetic output generated by active galactic nuclei (AGNs) and their host galaxies with a novel state-of-the-art AGN radio-to-X-ray spectral energy distribution model fitting code

Hidden Blazars In Radio Loud Quasars? [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 2000 We present the initial results from our search for hidden blazars via CIV emission line variability among radio loud quasars. The implications on models of quasar Broad Emission Line Regions are discussed, and we focus on the tidally disrupted star model.
