The radio properties of radio-quiet quasars
Although radio-quiet quasars (RQQs) constitute > ∼ 90% of optically-identified quasar samples their radio properties are only poorly understood. In this paper we present the results of a multi-frequency VLA study of 27 low-redshift RQQs. We detect radio emission from 20 objects, half of which are unresolved (≤ 0.24). In cases where significant structure can be resolved, double, triple and linea...
متن کاملRadio-quiet Red Quasars
We have performed a successful targeted search for a population of red, radio-quiet, and probably absorbed quasars. Radio-quiet, optically red ROSAT PSPC X-ray sources brighter than 1 ] 10~13 ergs cm~2 s~1 were searched for red (O[E [2.0, O1 20) counterparts in the Automated Plate-measuring Machine catalog of Palomar Sky Survey objects. Of 45 objects for which we obtained adequate followup opti...
متن کاملRadio Variability of Radio Quiet and Radio Loud Quasars
The majority of quasars are weak in their radio emission, with flux densities comparable to those in the optical, and energies far lower. A small fraction, about 10%, are hundreds to thousands of times stronger in the radio. Conventional wisdom holds that there are two classes of quasars, the radio quiets and radio louds, with a deficit of sources having intermediate power. Are there really two
متن کاملThe central engines of radio-quiet quasars
Two rival hypotheses have been proposed for the origin of the compact radio flux observed in radio-quiet quasars (RQQs). It has been suggested that the radio emission in these objects, typically some two or three orders of magnitude less powerful than in radio-loud quasars (RLQs), represents either emission from a circumnuclear starburst or is produced by radio jets with bulk kinetic powers ∼ 1...
متن کاملOn the origin of radio emission in radio quiet quasars
The radio emission in radio loud quasars originates in a jet carrying relativistic electrons. In radio quiet quasars (RQQs) the relative radio emission is ∼ 10 times weaker, and its origin is not established yet. We show here that there is a strong correlation between the radio luminosity (LR) and X-ray luminosity (LX) with LR ∼ 10 −5LX , for the radio quiet Palomar-Green (PG) quasar sample. Th...
