Winds as the origin of radio emission in z = 2.5 radio-quiet extremely red quasars
HC Hwang, NL Zakamska… - Monthly Notices of …, 2018 - academic.oup.com
Most active galactic nuclei (AGNs) are radio quiet, and the origin of their radio emission is
not well understood. One hypothesis is that this radio emission is a byproduct of quasar …

Host galaxies of high-redshift extremely red and obscured quasars
Abstract We present Hubble Space Telescope 1.4–1.6 m images of the hosts of 10
extremely red quasars (ERQs) and six type 2 quasar candidates at z= 2–3. ERQs, whose …
