相关论文: The radio properties of type II quasars

This paper presents the first high-resolution and high-sensitivity study of the radio properties of optically selected type~2 quasars. We used the Very Large Array at 8.4 GHz to observe 59 sources drawn from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey…

Type II quasars are the long-sought luminous analogs of type II (narrow emission line) Seyfert galaxies, suggested by unification models of active galactic nuclei (AGN) and postulated to account for an appreciable fraction of the cosmic…

Type II quasars are luminous AGNs whose central engines and broad-line regions are obscured by intervening material; such objects only recently have been discovered in appreciable numbers. We study the multiwavelength properties of 291 type…

Recently, Zakamska et al. (2003) selected 291 high-ionization narrow emission-line AGN in the redshift range 0.3-0.83 from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey spectroscopic data. The sample includes both Seyfert II galaxies and their higher…

Recent X-ray surveys with Chandra and XMM-Newton have found several genuine Type II quasars, the long sought-after population of high-luminosity (high-redshift) Seyfert 2 galaxies, and a sizable number of Type II quasar candidates. However,…

The role of radio mode feedback in non radio-loud quasars needs to be explored in depth to determine its true importance. Its effects can be identified based on the evidence of interactions between the radio structures and the ambient…

We present multi-frequency radio observations of a sample of z~2 obscured (type-2) quasars in the Spitzer extragalactic First Look Survey area. We combine the public data at 1.4 GHz, used in the selection of these sources, with new…

We report MIPS photometry of 20 radio-loud quasars and galaxies at 24 and 70 um (and of five at 160 um). We combine this sample with additional sources detected in the far infrared by IRAS and ISO for a total of 47 objects, including 23…

Type II quasars are suggested by unification models of Active Galactic Nuclei as luminous analogs of Seyfert 2 galaxies. A number of different methods have been used hitherto to discover type II quasars, but only a handful have been found.…

We present the first results from the Quasar Feedback Survey, a sample of 42 z<0.2, [O III] luminous AGN (L[O III]>10^42.1 ergs/s) with moderate radio luminosities (i.e. L(1.4GHz)>10^23.4 W/Hz; median L(1.4GHz)=5.9x10^23 W/Hz). Using high…

Although radio-quiet quasars (RQQs) constitute >90% of optically-identified quasar samples their radio properties are only poorly understood. In this paper we present the results of a multi-frequency VLA study of 27 low-redshift RQQs. We…

We have compared the optical emission line ratios of type 2 quasars from Zakamska et al. with standard AGN photoionization model predictions, Seyfert 2s, HII galaxies, and narrow line FRII radio galaxies. Moderate to high ionization narrow…

Although radio-quiet quasars (RQQs), which constitute the majority of optically-identified quasar samples, are by no means radio silent the properties of their radio emission are only poorly understood. We present the results of a…

We have compiled a sample of 21 low redshift (z < 0.3), luminous active galactic nuclei (AGN) with large Balmer decrements (Halpha/Hbeta > 7) using the galaxy and QSO catalogs of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Early Data Release. Using this…

We present Very Large Array observations at 1.4 and 5 GHz of a sample of 16 quasi-stellar objects (QSOs) at z = 1.78 to 2.71. Half of the chosen quasars are bright at mm wavelengths (250 or 350 GHz) while the other half were not detected at…

We investigate the radio emitting structures of radio-quiet active galactic nuclei with an emphasis on radio-quiet quasars to study their connection to Seyfert galaxies. We present and analyse high-sensitivity VLA radio continuum images of…

We present the results of an HST and ground-based imaging study of a complete 3C sample of z ~ 1 sources, including 5 quasars and 5 radio galaxies. We have resolved continuum structure around all of our quasars in the WFPC2 images and in…

Type II quasars are luminous Active Galactic Nuclei whose centers are obscured by large amounts of gas and dust. In this paper we present 3-band HST images of nine type II quasars with redshifts 0.2 < z < 0.4 selected from the Sloan Digital…

Type 2 quasars are luminous active galactic nuclei (AGN) whose central regions are obscured by large amounts of gas and dust. In this paper, we present a catalog of type 2 quasars from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), selected based on…

Quasars are objects of high interest in extragalactic astrophysics, cosmology, and astrometry. One of their useful qualities is their potential radio loudness. However, the fraction of radio-loud vs. radio-quiet quasars is subject to…
