Obscured AGN in Multiwavelength Surveys

Ezequiel Treister, C. M. Urry, Jeff Van Duyne +1

Using a simple unification model for AGN, with a fixed ratio of obscured to unobscured AGN of 3:1, we explain the X-ray, optical and infrared properties of the X-ray sources in the…

AGN Unification: An Update

C. Megan Urry

The paradigm for AGN unification is reviewed, in terms of its optical manifestation as obscuration in the equatorial plane and its radio manifestation as relativistic beaming of th…

Host galaxies, BH masses and Eddington ratio of radio-loud AGNs

A. Treves, N. Carangelo, R. Falomo +3

We compare the host galaxies properties of BL Lac objects with those of radio loud quasars (RLQs) imaged by the WFPC2 on board of HST. The considered objects (z<0.5) are always wel…

On The Parent Population of Radio Galaxies and the FR I--II Dichotomy

Riccardo Scarpa, C. Megan Urry

The possibility of radio galaxies being random sample of otherwise normal elliptical galaxies is tested. Starting with the observed optical luminosity functions for elliptical gala…

Issues in Blazar Research

Paolo Padovani, C. Megan Urry

As an overview of blazar research, we briefly discuss some of the themes of this conference, including the various types of blazars, blazar samples and selection effects, unified s…

On the Relation Between Radio and Non-Radio Elliptical Galaxies

Riccardo Scarpa, C. Megan Urry

Empirical evidence suggests that elliptical galaxies hosting a radio source may not be different from normal non-radio ellipticals. To test this possibility, we use Monte Carlo sim…
