Mapping feedback signatures in 3C 297: A quasar-host merger at Cosmic Noon

Chetna Duggal, Christopher P. O'Dea, Stefi A. Baum +6

We present a study of quasar host galaxy 3C 297 which is home to a powerful bent-jet radio source suggesting vigorous interaction with a dense ISM and/or jet precession. Archival H…

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…

The puzzling case of the radio-loud QSO 3C 186: a gravitational wave recoiling black hole in a young radio source?

M. Chiaberge, J. C. Ely, E. T. Meyer +14

Context. Radio-loud AGNs with powerful relativistic jets are thought to be associated with rapidly spinning black holes (BHs). BH spin-up may result from a number of processes, inc…
