Radio galaxies of the local universe
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
We present the first catalog of radio-emitting galaxies that covers the entire sky.
Description
Our catalog allows the selection of volume-limited subsamples containing all low-power radio galaxies, similar to the prototypical low-power radio galaxies Cen A or M87, within some hundred Mpc. Over 30% of the galaxies in our catalog are not contained in existing large-area extra-galactic radio samples.
We find that the local galaxy density in a sphere of 2Mpc centered on the radio galaxies is 1.7 times higher than around non-radio galaxies of the same luminosity and morphology. This significant enhancement suggests a causal relation between external galaxy properties, such as environment or merger history, and the formation of powerful jets in the present universe. Since the enhancement is observed with respect to galaxies of the same luminosity and Hubble type, it is not primarily driven by black hole mass.

Our automated matching procedure is found to select radio-emitting galaxies with high efficiency (99%) and purity (91%).
