Misalignment of the Jet and the Normal to the Dusty Torus in the Broad Absorption Line QSO FIRST\,J155633.8+351758

Cormac Reynolds, Brian Punsly, Christopher O'Dea

We performed VLBA observations of the Broad Absorption Line Quasar FIRST\,J155633.8+351758, "the first radio loud BALQSO". Our observations at 15.3 GHz partially resolved a seconda…

GRS 1915+105 as a Galactic Analog of a Fanaroff-Riley II Quasar

Brian Punsly, Jerome Rodriguez

We study the long term time averaged kinetic luminosity, , of the major flares of the Galactic microquasar GRS 1915+105 and the relationship to the intrinsic X-ray (bolome…

Multi-Epoch Observations of the Redwing Excess in the Spectrum of 3C279

Brian Punsly

It has been previously determined that there is a highly significant correlation between the spectral index from 10 GHz to 1350 and the amount of excess luminosity in the red w…

The Jet Power and Emission Line Correlations of Radio Loud Optically Selected Quasars

Brian Punsly, Shaohua Zhang

In this Letter, the properties of the extended radio emission form SDSS DR7 quasars with is studied. This low redshift sample is useful since any corresponding FIRST ra…

Calibrating Emission Lines as Quasar Bolometers

Brian Punsly, Shaohua Zhang

Historically, emission lines have been considered a valuable tool for estimating the bolometric thermal luminosity of the accretion flow in AGN, . We study the reliability…

High Jet Efficiency and Simulations of Black Hole Magnetospheres

Brian Punsly

This article reports on a growing body of observational evidence that many powerful lobe dominated (FR II) radio sources likely have jets with high efficiency. This study extends t…
