The Connection Between Radio Quiet AGN and the High/Soft State of X-Ray Binaries
A large sample of AGN studied here shows a “quenching” of the radio emission occurs when the luminosity is at a few percent to about 10% of the Eddington rate, just as is seen in the high/soft state of X-ray binaries. The result holds even when the sample of AGN includes no Narrow Line Seyfert 1 galaxies (the systems most commonly suggested to be the analog of the high/soft state). This adds su...
متن کاملIntranight polarization variability in radio-loud and radio-quiet AGN
Intranight polarization variability in AGN has not been studied extensively so far. Studying the variability in polarization makes it possibly to distinguish between different emission mechanisms. Thus it can help answering the question if intranight variability in radio-loud and radio-quiet AGN is of the same or of fundamentally different origin. In this paper we investigate intranight polariz...
متن کاملRadio-Variability in Radio-Quiet Quasars and Low-Luminosity AGN
We report on two surveys of radio-weak AGN to look for radio variability. We find significant variability with an RMS of 10-20% on a timescale of months in radio-quiet and radio-intermediate quasars. This exceeds the variability of radio cores in radio-loud quasars (excluding blazars), which vary only on a few percent level. The variability in radio-quiet quasars confirms that the radio emissio...
متن کاملA brief review of long - term X - ray and optical variability in radio - quiet AGN
Long-time-scale X-ray and optical variability is a key characteristic of AGN. Here, we summarise our current understanding of the X-ray and optical continuum variability of radioquiet AGN and the relation between the two bands. We demonstrate the strong connection between the X-ray variability properties of AGN and the variability of stellar-mass black hole candidates on much shorter time-scale...
متن کاملHerschel-ATLAS:The connection between star formation and AGN activity in radio-loud and radio-quiet active galaxies
We examine the relationship between star formation and AGN activity by constructing matched samples of local (0 < z < 0.6) radio-loud and radio-quiet AGN in the HerschelATLAS fields. Radio-loud AGN are classified as high-excitation and low-excitation radio galaxies (HERGs, LERGs) using their emission lines and WISE 22-μm luminosity. AGN accretion and jet powers in these active galaxies are trac...
