Characterizing the Gamma-ray Emission from Low-Luminosity AGN

Chris Karwin, Nikita Khatiya, Margot Boughelilba +3

A majority of the active galactic nuclei (AGN) in the local Universe are classified as low-luminosity AGN (LLAGN), having bolometric luminosities $\lesssim 10^{42} \ \mathrm{erg \…

Combined Fit of Spectrum and Composition for FR0 Radio-galaxy-emitted Ultra-high-energy Cosmic Rays with Resulting Secondary Photons and Neutrinos

Jon Paul Lundquist, Serguei Vorobiov, Lukas Merten +6

This study comprehensively investigates the gamma-ray dim population of Fanaroff-Riley Type 0 (FR0) radio galaxies as potentially significant sources of ultra-high-energy cosmic ra…

Characterizing the -ray Emission from FR0 Radio Galaxies

Nikita S. Khatiya, Margot Boughelilba, Christopher M. Karwin +5

FR0 galaxies constitute the most abundant jet population in the local Universe. With their compact jet structure, they are broadband photon emitters and have been proposed as multi…

On the sub-parsec scale core composition of FR 0 radio galaxies

Margot Boughelilba, Anita Reimer

Although Fanaroff-Riley (FR) type 0 radio galaxies are known to be the most numerous jet population in the local Universe, they are much less explored than the well-established cla…

CR-ENTREES -- Cosmic-Ray ENergy TRansport in timE-Evolving astrophysical Settings

A. Reimer, L. Merten, M. Boughelilba +3

In order to understand observable signatures from putative cosmic-ray (CR) sources in-source acceleration of particles, their energy and time-dependent transport including interact…

The UHECR-FR0 Radio Galaxy Connection: A Multi-Messenger Study of Energy Spectra/Composition Emission and Intergalactic Magnetic Field Propagation

J. P. Lundquist, L. Merten, S. Vorobiov +6

This study investigates low luminosity Fanaroff-Riley Type 0 (FR0) radio galaxies as a potentially significant source of ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECRs). Due to their much h…

Spine-sheath jet model for low-luminosity AGNs

Margot Boughelilba, Anita Reimer, Lukas Merten +1

In several jetted AGNs, structured jets have been observed. In particular spine-sheath configurations where the jet is radially divided into two or more zones of different flow vel…

Efficient Modeling of Heavy Cosmic Rays Propagation in Evolving Astrophysical Environments

Lukas Merten, Paolo Da Vela, Anita Reimer +4

We present a new energy transport code that models the time dependent and non-linear evolution of spectra of cosmic-ray nuclei, their secondaries, and photon target fields. The sof…

Lepto-hadronic jet-disc model for the multi-wavelength SED of M87

Margot Boughelilba, Anita Reimer, Lukas Merten

The low-luminosity Active Galactic Nuclei M87, archetype of Fanaroff-Riley I radio-galaxies, was observed in a historically quiet state in 2017. While one-zone leptonic jet models…

FR-0 jetted active galaxies: extending the zoo of candidate sites for UHECR acceleration

Lukas Merten, Margot Boughelilba, Anita Reimer +6

Fanaroff-Riley (FR) 0 radio galaxies form a low-luminosity extension to the well-established ultra-high-energy cosmic-ray (UHECR) candidate accelerators FR-1 and FR-2 galaxies. The…

Scrutinizing FR 0 Radio Galaxies as Ultra-High-Energy Cosmic Ray Source Candidates

Lukas Merten, Margot Boughelilba, Anita Reimer +6

Fanaroff-Riley (FR) 0 radio galaxies compose a new class of radio galaxies, which are usually weaker but much more numerous than the well-established class of FR 1 and FR 2 galaxie…
