High-resolution radio observations of Seyfert galaxies in the extended 12-micron sample - II. The properties of compact radio components
We discuss the properties of compact nuclear radio components in Seyfert
galaxies from the extended 12-micron AGN sample of Rush et al.(1993). Our main
results can be summarised as follows. Type 1 and type 2 Seyferts produce
compact radio components which are indistinguishable in strength and aspect,
indicating that their central engines are alike as proposed by the unification
model. Infrared IRAS fluxes are more closely correlated with low-resolution
radio fluxes than high-resolution radio fluxes, suggesting that they are
dominated by kiloparsec-scale, extra-nuclear emission regions; extra-nuclear
emission may be stronger in type 2 Seyferts. Early-type Seyfert galaxies tend
to have stronger nuclear radio emission than late-type Seyfert galaxies.
V-shaped extended emission-line regions, indicative of `ionisation cones', are
usually found in sources with large, collimated radio outflows. Hidden broad
lines are most likely to be found in sources with powerful nuclear radio
sources. Type 1 and type 2 Seyferts selected by their IRAS 12-micron flux
densities have well matched properties
Parsec-scale radio structures in the nuclei of four Seyfert galaxies
We present 18-cm radio maps of four Seyfert nuclei, Mrk 1, Mrk 3, Mrk 231 and
Mrk 463E, made with the European VLBI Network (EVN). Linear radio structures
are present in three out of four sources on scales of ~100 pc to ~1 kpc, and
the 20-mas beam of the EVN enables us to resolve details within the radio
structures on scales of <10 pc. Mrk 3 was also imaged using MERLIN and the data
combined with the EVN data to improve the sensitivity to extended emission. We
find an unresolved flat-spectrum core in Mrk 3, which we identify with the
hidden Seyfert 1 nucleus in this object, and we also see marked differences
between the two highly-collimated radio jets emanating from the core. The
western jet terminates in a bright hotspot and resembles an FRII radio
structure, whilst the eastern jet has more in common with an FRI source. In Mrk
463E, we use the radio and optical structure of the source to argue that the
true nucleus lies approximately 1 arcsec south of the position of the radio and
optical brightness peaks, which probably represent a hotspot at the working
surface of a radio jet. The EVN data also provide new evidence for a 100-pc
radio jet powering the radio source in the Type 1 nucleus of Mrk 231. However,
the Seyfert 2 galaxy Mrk 1 shows no evidence for radio jets down to the limits
of resolution (~10 pc). We discuss the range of radio source size and
morphology which can occur in the nuclei of Seyfert galaxies and the
implications for Seyfert unification schemes and for radio surveys of large
samples of objects.Comment: 23 pages, 7 postscript figures (supplied as separate files), uses AAS

A Survey of Kiloparsec-Scale Radio Outflows in Radio-Quiet Active Galactic Nuclei
Seyfert galaxies commonly host compact jets spanning 10-100 pc scales, but
larger structures (KSRs) are resolved out in long baseline, aperture synthesis
surveys. We report a new, short baseline Very Large Array (VLA) survey of a
complete sample of Seyfert and LINER galaxies. Out of all of the surveyed
radio-quiet sources, we find that 44% (19 / 43) show extended radio structures
at least 1 kpc in total extent that do not match the morphology of the disk or
its associated star-forming regions. The KSR Seyferts stand out by deviating
significantly from the far-infrared - radio correlation for star-forming
galaxies, and they are more likely to have a relatively luminous, compact radio
source in the nucleus; these results argue that KSRs are powered by the AGN
rather than starburst. KSRs probably originate from jet plasma that has been
decelerated by interaction with the nuclear ISM. We demonstrate the jet loses
virtually all of its power to the ISM within the inner kiloparsec to form the
slow KSRs.Comment: to appear in the Astronomical Journal, Vol 132 (projected
