We classify the spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of 431,038 sources in the 9 sq. deg Bootes field of the NOAO Deep Wide-Field Survey (NDWFS). There are up to 17 bands of data available per source, including ultraviolet (GALEX), optical…

We consider the problem of determining the host galaxies of radio sources by cross-identification. This has traditionally been done manually, which will be intractable for wide-area radio surveys like the Evolutionary Map of the Universe…

We present an analysis of the radial distribution of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) in $2300$ galaxy clusters from the Massive and Distant Clusters of {\it WISE} Survey (MaDCoWS). MaDCoWS provides the largest coverage of the extragalactic sky…

Radio-emitting jets might be one of the main ingredients shaping the evolution of massive galaxies in the Universe since early cosmic times. However, identifying early radio active galactic nuclei (AGN) and confirming this scenario has been…

Since radio sources with Ultra Steep Spectra (USS; alpha <~ -1.30; S ~ nu^alpha) are efficient tracers of high redshift radio galaxies (HzRGs), we have defined three samples of such USS sources using the recently completed WENSS, TEXAS,…

(abbreviated): This paper presents the results of a high resolution radio imaging survey of all known (96) low-luminosity active galactic nuclei (LLAGNs) at D<19Mpc. We find that almost half of all LINERs and low-luminosity Seyferts have…

Next-generation radio surveys are expected to detect tens of millions of active galactic nuclei (AGN) with a median redshift of z > 1. Beyond targeted surveys, the vast majority of these objects will not have spectroscopic redshifts, whilst…

We present the first results from the Distant Radio Galaxies Optically Non-detected in the SDSS (DRaGONS) Survey. Using a novel selection technique for identifying high redshift radio galaxy (HzRG) candidates, a large sample of bright…

In this study we investigate 89 radio galaxies that are spectroscopically-confirmed to be members of five large scale structures in the redshift range of $0.65 \le z \le 0.96$. Based on a two-stage classification scheme, the radio galaxies…

We present a machine-learning framework to accurately characterize morphologies of Active Galactic Nucleus (AGN) host galaxies within $z<1$. We first use PSFGAN to decouple host galaxy light from the central point source, then we invoke the…

We constructed a sample of 23,344 radio-loud active galactic nuclei (RLAGN) from the catalogue derived from the LOFAR Two-Metre Sky Survey (LoTSS) survey of the HETDEX Spring field. Although separating AGN from star-forming galaxies remains…

We report the results of $g-$, $r-$, and $i-$dropout selections based on optical identifications of Very Large Array Sky Survey (VLASS) radio sources using the Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Program survey (HSC--SSP). By positional…

We present an analysis of a large sample of AGN environments at z~1 using stacked Spitzer data at 3.6um. The sample contains type-1 and type-2 AGN in the form of quasars and radio galaxies, and spans a large range in both optical and radio…

The Australia Telescope Large Area Survey (ATLAS) and the VLA survey in the XMM-LSS/VIDEO deep field provide deep ($\approx 15$ ${\mu}$Jybeam$^{-1}$) and high-resolution ($\approx$ 4.5--8 arcsec) radio coverage of the three XMM-SERVS fields…

Study of high-redshift radio galaxies (HzRGs) can shed light on the active galactic nuclei (AGNs) evolution in massive elliptical galaxies. The vast majority of observed high-redshift AGNs are quasars, and there are very few radio galaxies…
