Accretion mode versus radio morphology in the LOFAR Deep Fields
(2022-02-16)
Radio-loud active galaxies have two accretion modes [radiatively inefficient (RI) and radiatively efficient (RE)], with distinct optical and infrared signatures, and two jet dynamical behaviours, which in arcsec- to ...
Radio AGN in nearby dwarf galaxies: the important role of AGN in dwarf-galaxy evolution
(2022-02-04)
We combine deep optical and radio data, from the Hyper Suprime-Cam and the Low-Frequency Array (LOFAR) respectively, to study 78 radio AGN in nearby (z < 0.5) dwarf galaxies. Comparison to a control sample, matched in ...
Low frequency radio properties of the $z>5$ quasar population
(2021-12-31)
Optically luminous quasars at z > 5 are important probes of super-massive black hole (SMBH) formation. With new and future radio facilities, the discovery of the brightest low-frequency radio sources in this epoch would ...
The Application of Ridgelines in Extended Radio Source Cross-Identification
(2021-10-22)
Extended radio sources are an important minority population in modern deep radio surveys, because they enable detailed investigation of the physics governing radio-emitting regions such as active galaxies and their ...
MIGHTEE: total intensity radio continuum imaging and the COSMOS / XMM-LSS Early Science fields
(2021-10-21)
MIGHTEE is a galaxy evolution survey using simultaneous radio continuum, spectro-polarimetry, and spectral line observations from the South African MeerKAT telescope. When complete, the survey will image $\sim$20 deg$^{2}$ ...
A snapshot of the oldest AGN feedback phases
(2021-10-18)
Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) inject large amounts of energy into their host galaxies and surrounding environment, shaping their properties and evolution. In particular, AGN jets inflate cosmic-ray lobes, which can rise ...
Investigating the spectra and physical nature of galaxy scale jets
(2021-10-13)
Previous studies have shown that physically small, low-luminosity radio galaxies, which we refer to as galaxy scale jets (GSJ), could potentially have a significant effect upon the host galaxy's evolution. Using 6 arcsec ...
The population of M dwarfs observed at low radio frequencies
(2021-10-11)
Coherent low-frequency (≲200 MHz) radio emission from stars encodes the conditions of the outer corona, mass-ejection events and space weather 1–5. Previous low-frequency searches for radio-emitting stellar systems have ...
The eROSITA Final Equatorial-Depth Survey (eFEDS). LOFAR view of brightest cluster galaxies and AGN feedback
(2021-07-06)
Context. During the performance verification phase of the Spectrum-Roentgen-Gamma (SRG) eROSITA telescope, the eROSITA Final Equatorial-Depth Survey (eFEDS) was carried out. It covers a 140 deg2 field located at 126◦ < ...
Low-frequency radio spectra of submillimetre galaxies in the Lockman Hole
(2021-04-19)
We investigate the radio properties of a sample of 53 sources selected at 850 $\mu$m from the SCUBA-2 Cosmology Legacy Survey using new deep, low-frequency radio imaging of the Lockman Hole field from the Low Frequency ...
