Powerful Radio-Loud Quasars are Triggered by Galaxy Mergers in the Cosmic Bright Ages
Peter Breiding, Marco Chiaberge, Erini Lambrides +14
While supermassive black holes are ubiquitous features of galactic nuclei, only a small minority are observed during episodes of luminous accretion. The physical mechanism(s) drivi…
Examining the Radio-Loud/Radio-Quiet dichotomy with new Chandra and VLA observations of 13 UGC galaxies
Preeti Kharb, A. Capetti, D. J. Axon +7
(Abridged) We present the results from new 15 ks Chandra-ACIS and 4.9 GHz Very Large Array observations of 13 galaxies hosting low luminosity AGN. This completes the multiwavelengt…
HST NIR Snapshot Survey of 3CR Radio Source Counterparts II: An Atlas and Inventory of the Host Galaxies, Mergers and Companions
David J. E. Floyd, David Axon, Stefi Baum +10
We present the second part of an H-band (1.6 microns) atlas of z<0.3 3CR radio galaxies, using the Hubble Space Telescope Near Infrared Camera and Multi-Object Spectrometer (HST NI…
Infrared Emission from the Nearby Cool Core Cluster Abell 2597
Megan Donahue, Andres Jordan, Stefi A. Baum +9
We observed the brightest central galaxy (BCG) in the nearby (z=0.0821) cool core galaxy cluster Abell 2597 with the IRAC and MIPS instruments on board the Spitzer Space Telescope.…
Supermassive black holes in the Sbc spiral galaxies NGC 3310, NGC 4303 and NGC 4258
Guia Pastorini, Alessandro Marconi, Alessandro Capetti +12
We present new Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) observations of three spiral galaxies, NGC 4303, NGC 3310 and NGC 4258. The bright optical emission lines H $6564…
Discovery of thirteen novae candidates in M87
Juan P. Madrid, William B. Sparks, Henry C. Ferguson +2
We have made thirteen positive identifications of near-ultraviolet (NUV) transient sources in the giant elliptical galaxy M87 using the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS)…
