Seyfert Galaxies: Nuclear Radio Structure and Unification
We have observed a sample of Seyfert (Sy) galaxies with the global Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) to test the predictions of the unification scheme for the Sy galaxies which hypothesises that Sys of Type 1 and of Type 2 constitute a single population of objects. If Sy 1 and Sy 2 galaxies differ only in the orientation of the axisymmmetric active nucleus with respect to the observer, t...
متن کاملDoes the unification of BL Lac and FR I radio galaxies require jet velocity structures?
We explore the viability of the unification of BL Lacs and FR I radio galaxies by comparing the core emission of radio galaxies with those of BL Lacs of similar extended radio power, taking advantage of the newly measured optical nuclear luminosity of FR I sources. The spectral properties of complete samples are also studied in the radio-optical luminosity plane: starting from the Spectral Ener...
متن کاملRadio Detection of Radio-quiet Galaxies
We investigate the radio emission of ∼ 185,000 quiescent (optically unclassifiable) galaxies selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). By median-stacking FIRST cutouts centered on the optically-selected sources, we are able to reach flux densities down to the 10s of μJy. The quiescent galaxy sample is composed of two subgroups inhabiting vastly different regimes: those targeted for the...
متن کاملFR II radio galaxies with z < 0 . 3 – II . Beaming and unification
In a previous paper we presented measurements of the properties of jets and cores in a large sample of FRII radio galaxies with z < 0.3. Here we test, by means of Monte Carlo simulations, the consistency of those data with models in which the prominences of cores and jets are determined by relativistic beaming. We conclude that relativistic beaming is needed to explain the relationships between...
متن کاملGiant Radio Galaxies
Giant radio galaxies (GRGs) are the largest structures associated with single galaxies. Their linear sizes exceed 1 Mpc and so they form the extreme tail of the radio galaxy population. Because they have expanded to such large sizes, GRGs are thought to be the endpoint of radio galaxy evolution and provide important constraints to evolutionary models. They extend well past the environment of th...
