The host galaxies of low luminosity quasars at high redshift
We present VLT/ISAAC near-infrared imaging of the host galaxies of 15 low luminosity quasars at 1 < z < 2. This work complements our studies to trace the cosmological evolution of the host galaxies of high luminosity quasars. The radioloud (RLQ) and radio-quiet (RQQ) quasars have similar distribution of redshift and luminosity, and together the high and low luminosity quasars cover a large rang...
متن کاملRadio-Variability in Radio-Quiet Quasars and Low-Luminosity AGN
We report on two surveys of radio-weak AGN to look for radio variability. We find significant variability with an RMS of 10-20% on a timescale of months in radio-quiet and radio-intermediate quasars. This exceeds the variability of radio cores in radio-loud quasars (excluding blazars), which vary only on a few percent level. The variability in radio-quiet quasars confirms that the radio emissio...
متن کاملSpitzer Discovery of Very Low Luminosity Objects
The Spitzer Space Telescope allows for the first time to search systematically for very low luminosity (. 0.1 L⊙) objects (VeLLOs) associated with dense molecular cores. They may be the first candidate Class 0 sources with sub-stellar masses. We describe such a source in the dense molecular core L1148. VeLLO natal cores show properties that are unusual for star-forming cores. The low luminosity...
متن کاملSpectroscopically Peculiar Type Ia Supernovae and Implications for Progenitors
In a recent paper Li et al. (2000) reported that 36% of 45 Type Ia supernovae discovered since 1997 in two volume–limited supernova searches were spectroscopically peculiar, and they suggested that because this peculiarity rate is higher than that reported for an earlier non–volume–limited observational sample by Branch et al. (1993), it is now more likely that SNe Ia are produced by more than ...
