We conducted precise measurements of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs) clustering at $z\sim1$ and $z\sim2$ by measuring the two-point cross-correlation function (CCF) between galaxies and X-ray-selected AGNs, and the two-point auto-correlation…

The mis-aligned active galactic nuclei (AGN), 3C\,84, has been observed approximately monthly at four frequencies simultaneously (22\,GHz -- 129\,GHz) on the Korean VLBI Network (KVN) since 2013 as part of the interferometric monitoring of…
