The rest-frame ultraviolet properties of radio-loud broad absorption line quasars

open access: yes, 2012
We recently presented radio observations of a large sample of radio-loud broad absorption line (BAL) quasars from the SDSS and FIRST surveys, as well as a well matched sample of unabsorbed quasars, primarily to measure their radio spectral indices and ...

[C ii] Properties and Far-infrared Variability of a z = 7 Blazar

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
We present millimeter observations of the host galaxy of the most distant blazar known, VLASS J041009.05−013919.88 (hereafter J0410–0139) at z = 7, using Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) and NOrthern Extended Millimeter Array (NOEMA ...

The environment of active objects in the nearby universe

open access: yes, 2002
We study the galaxy environment of active galaxies, radio-loud and radio-quiet quasars in the redshift range $0.1\leq z\leq0.25$. We use APM galaxies in order to explore the local galaxy overdensity and the $b_J-R$ colour distribution of neighbouring ...

Disclosing the Radio Loudness Distribution Dichotomy in Quasars: An Unbiased Monte Carlo Approach Applied to the SDSS-FIRST Quasar Sample [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We investigate the dichotomy in the radio loudness distribution of quasars by modelling their radio emission and various selection effects using a Monte Carlo approach. The existence of two physically distinct quasar populations, the radio-loud and radio-

VLBA Observations ofz>4 Radio-loud Quasars

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2004
We present high resolution (< 20 mas) observations of the radio continuum emission at 1.4 GHz from three high-redshift quasars: J1053-0016 (z=4.29), 1235-0003 (z=4.69), and J0913+5919 (z=5.11), thereby doubling the number of z > 4 radio-loud quasars that have been imaged at mas resolution.

Impact of Radio-mode Feedback on the Covering Fraction of the Circumgalactic Medium of Quasars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Utilizing data from the Low-Frequency Array Two-meter Sky Survey and the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, we assemble a sample of 1469 projected quasar pairs with detected radio emissions from foreground quasars, as well as a control sample of 5846 pairs ...

Clear Evidence for Intranight Optical Variability in Radio-quiet Quasars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
We present new clues to the problem of the radio loudness dichotomy arising from an extensive search for intranight optical variability in seven sets of optically luminous radio-quiet quasars and (radio-loud) BL Lacertae objects, which are matched in ...

The Detection Rate of Associated Mg ii Absorption Lines in Quasars Depends on Their Radio Emission

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
In active galactic nuclei, jet-driven feedback plays a significant role in influencing the properties of gas within their host galaxy and the circumgalactic medium.

Near-infrared adaptive optics imaging of high redshift quasars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The properties of high redshift quasar host galaxies are studied, in order to investigate the connection between galaxy evolution, nuclear activity, and the formation of supermassive black holes.
