The lifecycle of powerful AGN outflows
Christian R. Kaiser, Philip N. Best
During the course of this conference, much evidence was presented that points to an intimate connection between the energetic outflows driven by AGN and the energy budget and quite…
AGN jet models
Christian R. Kaiser
In this review I concentrate exclusively on models for the large-scale structure created by jet flows in AGN. I briefly mention models for the evolution and emission of these objec…
On the prevalence of radio-loud AGN in brightest cluster galaxies: implications for AGN heating of cooling flows
P. N. Best, A. von der Linden, G. Kauffmann +2
(Abridged) The prevalence of radio-loud AGN activity in present-day massive halos is determined using a sample of 625 nearby groups and clusters from the SDSS. Brightest group and…
The large-scale jet-powered radio nebula of Circinus X-1
V. Tudose, R. P. Fender, C. R. Kaiser +3
We present multi-epoch observations of the radio nebula around the neutron star X-ray binary Circinus X-1 made at 1.4 and 2.5 GHz with the Australia Telescope Compact Array between…
AGN-controlled cooling in elliptical galaxies
P. N. Best, C. R. Kaiser, T. M. Heckman +1
A long-standing problem for models of galaxy formation has been the mismatch between the predicted shape of the mass function of dark matter halos and the observed shape of the lum…
The flat synchrotron spectra of partially self-absorbed jets revisited
Christian R. Kaiser
Flat radio spectra with large brightness temperatures at the core of AGN and X-ray binaries are usually interpreted as the partially self-absorbed bases of jet flows emitting synch…
