The effects of environment on radio-loud AGN activity in Stripe 82

>Magister Scientiae - MSc === 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 parameter, ƩN, which measures galaxy dens...
