In a study of the radio emission mechanism of the FR-I AGN NGC 5128 (Centaurus A)}, we have determined the centimeter and millimeter continuum spectrum of the whole Centaurus A radio source and measured the continuum emission from the…

This work presents a description of the scientific goals and objectives of OPTIMus (OPTical, Infrared, Millimeter survey of massive star-forming regions), a survey of massive star-forming regions in the optical, infrared, and millimeter…

The z=1.786 radio galaxy 3C294 lies <10 arsec from a 12th mag star and has been the target of at least three previous investigations using adaptive-optics imaging. A major problem in interpreting these results is the uncertainty in the…

New images from the Hubble Space Telescope of the FRII radio galaxy Pictor A reveal a number of jet knot candidates which coincide with previously detected radio and x-ray knots. Previous observations in x-ray and radio bands show the…

We present the first clear detection of ionized Fe-K emission and absorption components in the nearby radio galaxy Centaurus A, revealed by the high-resolution XRISM/Resolve detector. In the 6.5-6.9 keV band, XRISM reveals multiple Fe XXV…

In this article, we report high-resolution (~ 0.1" -- 0.3"), high-sensitivity (~ 50 -100 uJy beam-1) Very Large Array 0.7 and 1.3 cm observations of the young stellar system IRAS 16293-2422 in rho-Ophiuchus. In the 0.7 cm image, component A…

We report the detection of a 9.7 $\mu$m silicate dust absorption feature toward the Cygnus A nucleus. Its optical depth is, however, significantly smaller than that expected from the dust extinction toward the background $L$-band emission…

We present deep 3.6 cm radio continuum observations of the H II region NGC 2024 in Orion B obtained using the Very Large Array in its A-configuration, with $0\rlap.{''}2$ angular resolution. We detect a total of 25 compact radio sources in…

We present optical spectra and high-resolution multi-wavelength radio observations of the compact steep-spectrum radio source MRC B1221-423 (z=0.1706). MRC B1221-423 is a very young (~10^5 yr), powerful radio source which is undergoing a…

We present an analysis of the properties of optical counterparts of radio sources down to 1 mJy. Optical identifications have been obtained by matching together objects from the APM and FIRST surveys over the region $148.13^\circ\simlt {\rm…

We have used the Very Large Array (VLA) to conduct a survey for radio continuum emission in the sample of 52 Seyfert nuclei selected from the optical spectroscopic galaxy catalog of Ho, Filippenko, and Sargent. This Seyfert sample is the…

Concomitant with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) observation of the Perseus cluster, we obtained optical spectropolarimetry of its central active galactic nucleus, NGC 1275, using the Alhambra Faint Object Spectrograph and…

The ``central engine'' of AGN is thought to be powered by accretion on a central nucleus believed to be a super-massive black hole. The localization and exact mechanism of the energy release in AGN are still not well understood. We present…

We present a comprehensive study of host galaxies of radio sources within the 1.35$R_{200}$ of the Coma cluster by combining deep 144MHz observations from the LOFAR Two-Metre Sky Survey (LoTSS-DR2) with optical spectroscopy and photometry…

We present deep 1.4GHz Very Large Array (VLA) radio continuum observations of two ~half square degree fields in the Coma cluster of galaxies. The two fields, "Coma 1" and "Coma 3," correspond to the cluster core and southwest infall region…

We report results from the simultaneous XRISM (183 ks) and NuSTAR (62 ks) observations of the Seyfert-2 galaxy NGC 4388. This AGN has the brightest Fe K$\alpha$ line among Compton-thin, obscured sources. To model the reflection continuum…

Gas can be used to trace the formation and evolution of galaxies as well as the impact that the nuclear activity has on the surrounding medium. For nearby compact radio sources, we have used observations of neutral hydrogen - that we…

New high quality Keck and ESO images of PKS 1830-211 are presented. Applying a powerful new deconvolution algorithm to these optical and infrared data, both images of the flat spectrum core of the radio source have been identified. An…

We present observations of the Cygnus OB2 region obtained with the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) at the frequencies of 325 MHz and 610 MHz. In this contribution we focus on the study of proplyd-like objects (also known as…

In order to find clues to the origin of the "winged" or "X-shaped" radio galaxies (XRGs) we investigate here the parent galaxies of a large sample of 106 XRGs for optical-radio axes alignment, interstellar medium, black hole mass, and…
