Recent studies have found that radio-AGN selected by radio-loudness show little difference in terms of their host galaxy properties when compared to non-AGN galaxies of similar stellar mass and redshift. Using new 1.4~GHz VLBI observations…
Deep radio surveys show a population of very red counterparts of microjansky radio sources, which are unidentified to I = 25 in ground based images and I = 28.5 in the Hubble Deep Field. This population of optically faint radio sources,…
We detect and study the properties of faint radio AGN in Luminous Red Galaxies (LRGs). The LRG sample comprises 760,000 objects from a catalog of LRG photometric redshifts constructed from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) imaging data,…
Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) play a decisive role in galaxy evolution, particularly so when operating in a radiatively inefficient mode, where they launch powerful jets that reshape their surroundings. However, identifying them is…
The high angular resolution and sensitivity of Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) offer a unique tool to identify and study active galactic nuclei and star-formation activity over cosmic time. However, despite recent technical…
The change in the slope of the radio source counts suggests the emergence of a new population of radio galaxies at mJy and sub-mJy levels. Our understanding of such faint radio sources has advanced over the last decade through increasingly…
In this article I will briely review the current status of radio observations of nearby supernovae and their remnants. This review will initially address observations of the radio light curves of nearby core-collapse supernovae, followed by…
Remnant radio galaxies represent the dying phase of radio-loud active galactic nuclei (AGN). Large samples of remnant radio galaxies are important for quantifying the radio galaxy life cycle. The remnants of radio-loud AGN can be identified…
We present an all-sky catalog of absolute positions and estimates of correlated flux density of 21,942 compact radio sources determined from processing interferometric visibility data of virtually all very long baseline interferometry…
Determination of the epoch dependent star-formation rate of field galaxies is one of the principal goals of modern observational cosmology. Deep radio surveys, sensitive to starbursts out to $z \sim$ 1-2, may hold the key to understanding…
We have selected a field from the VLA FIRST Survey which is typical in all aspects except one: it contains a bright, but extremely compact VLBI calibrator - J1159+291. 127 unresolved FIRST sources with $S_{FIRST}\ge 10$ mJy lie within…
We present an overview of unbiased studies of diffuse extragalactic radio sources. We use a previously developed filtering technique to remove compact sources from large surveys such as WENSS, WISH, and NVSS and examine the residual diffuse…
We report on a recent 90 cm wide-field VLBI survey of two 3.1 deg^2 fields using the VLBA, Westerbork and Jodrell Bank telescopes. In-beam calibration was used to calibrate each field, the process was simplified by imaging the calibrators…
The e-VLBI technique offers a unique opportunity for users to probe the milliarcsecond (mas) scale structure of unidentified radio sources, and organise quick follow-up observations in case of detection. Here we report on e-EVN results for…
Studying transient phenomena with the Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) technique faces severe difficulties because the turnaround time of the experiments from the observations to the scientific result is rather long. The e-VLBI…
In order to determine the relationship between the faint X-ray and faint radio source populations, and hence to help understand the X-ray and radio emission mechanisms in those faint source populations, we have made a deep 1.4GHz Very Large…
When comparing modern fundamental reference frames in the radio (International Celestial Reference Frame) and optical (Gaia), a couple of bright radio reference sources appear to have very large radio-optical offsets, from tens up to…
We present e-MERLIN and EVN observations which reveal unambiguous jet activity within radio quiet quasar HS~0810+2554. With an intrinsic flux density of 880~nJy, this is the faintest radio source ever imaged. The findings present new…
Deep continuum surveys at radio wavelengths are able to cover large areas, yield high angular resolution, and do not suffer from dust extinction, thus providing a robust way to measure the star formation history of the universe. However,…
We present results from 4.8 GHz VLA and Global-VLBI observations of the northern half of the moderate FIR luminosity (median L_IR = 10^11.01 L_Sol) COLA sample of star-forming galaxies. VLBI sources are detected in a high fraction (20/90)…
