Width of Radio-Loud and Radio-Quiet CMEs

چکیده
In the present paper we report on the difference in angular sizes between radio-loud and radio-quiet CMEs. For this purpose we compiled these two samples of events using Wind/WAVES and SOHO/LASCO observations obtained during 1996-2005. It is shown that the radio-loud CMEs are almost two times wider than the radio-quiet CMEs (considering expanding parts of CMEs). Furthermore we show that the radio-quiet CMEs have a narrow expanding bright part with a large extended diffusive structure. These results were obtained by measuring the CME widths in three different ways.

Super- and sub-critical regions in shocks driven by radio-loud and radio-quiet CMEs
White-light coronagraphic images of Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) observed by SOHO/LASCO C2 have been used to estimate the density jump along the whole front of two CME-driven shocks. The two events are different in that the first one was a "radio-loud" fast CME, while the second one was a "radio quiet" slow CME. From the compression ratios inferred along the shock fronts, we estimated the Alfv...
متن کامل− σ ∗ relation for normal galaxies ?
In order to examine the relationship between the black hole mass MBH and stellar velocity dispersion σ∗ in radio-loud active galactic nuclei (AGNs), we study two effects which may cause the uncertainty of black hole mass estimates for radio-loud AGNs: the relativistic beaming effect on the observed optical continuum radiation and the orientation effect on broad emission line width. After correc...
متن کاملThe black hole–bulge relation in AGNs
We used the widths of Hβ and [OIII] emission lines to investigate the black hole–bulge relation in radio-loud AGNs, radio-quiet AGNs and NLS1s. The central black hole mass, Mbh, is estimated from the Hβ line width and the optical luminosity, and the bulge velocity dispersion, σ, is directly from the width of [OIII] line. We found that the radio-quiet AGNs follow the established Mbh − σ relation...
متن کاملAccretion rates and accretion efficiency in AGNs
We used the standard geometrical thin accretion theory to obtain the accretion rates in Seyfert 1 galaxies and quasars. Combining accretion rates with the bolometric luminosity, we obtained the accretion efficiency. We found most of Seyfert 1 galaxies and radio quiet quasars have lower accretion efficiencies while most of the radio loud quasars possess higher accretion efficiencies. This findin...
متن کاملOccurrence and Global Properties of Narrow C Iv Λ1549å Absorption Lines in Moderate-redshift Quasars
A statistical study is presented of (a) the frequency of narrow C iv λ1549 absorption lines in 1.5 < ∼ z < ∼ 3.6 radio-quiet and radio-loud quasars, and of (b) the UV and radio properties of the absorbed quasars. The quasar sample is unbiased with respect to absorption properties and the radio-quiet and radio-loud subsamples are well matched in redshift and luminosity. A similarly high incidenc...
