Radio Galaxy Zoo Data Release 1: 100,185 radio source classifications from the FIRST and ATLAS surveys
O. Ivy Wong, A. F. Garon, M. J. Alger +15
Radio galaxies can extend far beyond the stellar component of their originating host galaxies, and their radio emission can consist of multiple discrete components. Furthermore, th…
Evidence for non-merger co-evolution of galaxies and their supermassive black holes
R. J. Smethurst, R. S. Beckmann, B. D. Simmons +7
Recent observational and theoretical studies have suggested that supermassive black holes (SMBHs) grow mostly through non-merger (`secular') processes. Since galaxy mergers lead to…
Supermassive black holes in merger-free galaxies have higher spins which are preferentially aligned with their host galaxy
R. S. Beckmann, R. J. Smethurst, B. D. Simmons +7
Here we use the Horizon-AGN simulation to test whether the spins of SMBHs in merger-free galaxies are higher. We select samples using an observationally motivated bulge-to-total ma…
Radio Galaxy Zoo: host galaxies and radio morphologies derived from visual inspection
J. K. Banfield, O. I. Wong, K. W. Willett +33
We present results from the first twelve months of operation of Radio Galaxy Zoo, which upon completion will enable visual inspection of over 170,000 radio sources to determine the…
