The connection between radio-quiet active galactic nuclei and the high/soft state of X-ray binaries

The connection between radio-quiet active galactic nuclei and the high/soft state of X-ray binaries

A large sample of active galactic nuclei (AGN) studied here shows a 'quenching' of the radio emission that occurs when the luminosity is from a few per cent to about 10 per cent of the Eddington rate, just as is seen in the high/soft state of X-ray binaries. The result …
