The effects of environment on radio-loud AGN activity in Stripe 82
(University of the Western Cape, 2016)We investigate the link between environment and radiative accretion efficiency using a sample of 8946 radio-loud AGN detected at 1 − 2 GHz in the SDSS Stripe 82 region. We quantify their environments using the surface-density ... -
A large-scale clustering analysis of radio galaxies
(University of the Western Cape, 2019)The distribution of the visible structure in the Universe is in part dependent on the in uence of the dark matter structure. Measurements of large-scale structure can therefore be related to the dark matter distribution ... -
Measuring the quasar luminosity function below the detection threshold
(University of the Western Cape, 2016)The radio emission of radio-quiet active galactic nuclei (AGN) is thought to be from star formation and AGN related emission. I investigate these sources using 1.4 GHz radio data from FIRST and three optical quasars samples ...
