Abstract

Sixty years after the publication of the seminal 3CR catalogue, astronomers are getting to grips with the nature of the radio emissions in active galaxies: black-hole-accretion- and star-formation-driven radio emissions occur in concert, with greatly varying contributions. However, what exactly drives the formation of jets remains to be solved. To jet or not to jet-that is the question!
