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…
Detection of an X-ray jet in 3C 371 with Chandra
Joseph E. Pesce, Rita M. Sambruna, F. Tavecchio +4
We report the detection at X-rays of the radio/optical jet of 3C 371, from a short (10 ks) Chandra exposure in March 2000. We also present a new MERLIN observation at 1.4 GHz toget…
On The Parent Population of Radio Galaxies and the FRI - FRII Dichotomy
Riccardo Scarpa, C. Megan Urry
We test the hypothesis that radio galaxies are a random subset of otherwise normal elliptical galaxies. Starting with the observed optical luminosity functions for elliptical galax…
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…
Chandra Observations of the X-Ray Jet of 3C273
Rita M. Sambruna, C. Megan Urry, F. Tavecchio +4
We report results from Chandra observations of the X-ray jet of 3C~273 during the calibration phase in 2000 January. The zeroeth-order images and spectra from two 40-ks exposures w…
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…
