  • Jet in seyfert galaxies 
    Shastri, P; Lal, D. V; Gabuzda, D. C (Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2003)
    We will present the main results from a study of the pc-scale radio structure of our matched sample of Seyfert galaxies, specifically selected to test the Unified Scheme. We chose purportedly face-on (Seyfert 1) and edge-on ...
  • Late time X-ray, IR and radio observations of the tidal disruption event galaxy NGC 5905 
    Raichur, H; Mousumi Das; Herrero, A. A; Shastri, P; Kantharia, N. G (Springer, 2015-04)
    NGC 5905 is one of the few galaxies with no prior evidence for an active galactic nucleus (AGN) in which an X-ray flare was detected by the ROSAT All Sky Survey (RASS) in 1990–1991. Follow-up studies showed that the X-ray ...
  • Less is more? are radiogalaxies below the fanaroff-riley break more polarised on pc-scales? 
    Kharb, P; Shastri, P; Gabuzda, D. C (Springer, 2008)
  • Low frequency radio emission from seyfert galaxies 
    Singh, V; Shastri, P; Athreya, R (Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2009-09)
    Seyfert galaxies are low-luminosity, radio-quiet, nearby active galaxies. The high-frequency radio observations of several Seyfert galaxies show jet-like features, which tend to be confined within the host galaxy, whereas ...
  • Low-frequency radio observations of Seyfert galaxies: A test of the unification scheme 
    Singh, V; Shastri, P; Ishwara-Chandra, C. H; Athreya, R (EDP Sciences, 2013-06)
    Aims. We present low-frequency radio imaging and spectral properties of a well-defined sample of Seyfert galaxies using GMRT 240/610 MHz dual frequency observations. Radio spectra of Seyfert galaxies over 240 MHz to 5.0 ...
  • Magnetic Field Geometry in `Red' and `Blue' BL Lacs 
    Kharb, P; Gabuzda, D. C; Shastri, P (Springer, 2003-10)
    We compare the systematics of the magnetic field geometry in the `red' low-energy peaked BL Lacs (LBLs) and `blue' high-energy peaked BL Lacs (HBLs) using VLBI polarimetric images. The LBLs are primarily `radio-selected' ...
  • Magnetic Field Geometry of 3C111 on pc-scales 
    Kharb, P; Gabuzda, D; Shastri, P (Astronomical Society of India, 2003)
    Multi-epoch Very Long Baseline Polarimetric observations of the Broad Line Radio galaxy 3C111 performed at 8 and 43 GHz after a large millimetre outburst, reveal rapidly evolving parsec-scale radioo structure and the ...
  • Magnetic field geometry of the broad line radio galaxy 3C111 
    Kharb, P; Gabuzda, D. C; Alef, W; Preuss, E; Shastri, P (Elsevier, 2003-10)
    Very Long Baseline Polarimetric observations of the Broad Line Radio galaxy 3C111 performed in July and September of 1996 at 8 and 43 GHz reveal rapidly evolving parsec-scale radio structure after a large millimetre outburst. ...
  • Magnetic fields in blazar Pc-scale jets — possible connection to spin rates of black holes 
    Kharb, P; Lister, M. L; Shastri, P (World Scientific Publishing Company, 2008-09)
    We re-examine the differences observed in the pc-scale magnetic field geometry of high and low optical polarization quasars (HPQs, LPRQs) using the MOJAVE sample. We find that, as previously reported, HPQ jets exhibit ...
  • Meandering into astrophysics 
    Shastri, P (Indian Academy of Sciences, 2008)
  • Measuring the level of nuclear activity in Seyfert galaxies and the unification scheme 
    Singh, V; Shastri, P; Risaliti, G (EDP Sciences, 2011-09)
    Context. The unification scheme of Seyfert galaxies hypothesizes that Seyfert type 1s and type 2s are intrinsically similar and the observed differences between the two subtypes are solely due to the differing orientations ...
  • Milliarcsec-scale radio structure of a matched sample of Seyfert 1 and Seyfert 2 galaxies 
    Lal, D. V; Shastri, P; Gabuzda, D. C (EDP Sciences, 2004-10)
    We have obtained mas-scale resolution very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) images of a sample of Seyfert 1 and Seyfert 2 galaxies at 5 GHz (wavelength, lamda = 6 cm). The Seyferts of the two types were chosen to be ...
  • O VI Asymmetry and an Accelerated Outflow in an Obscured Seyfert: FUSE and HST STIS Spectroscopy of Mrk 533 
    Shastri, P; Murthy, J; Whittle, Mark; Wills, B. J (The American Astronomical Society, 2006-07-20)
    We present far-ultraviolet spectra of the Seyfert 2 galaxy Mrk 533 obtained with FUSE. These spectra show narrow asymmetrical O VI λλ1032,1038 emission lines with stronger wings shortward of the peak wavelength, but the ...
  • Optical and radio variability of the BL Lacertae object AO 0235+16: A possible 5-6 year periodicity

    The BL Lacertae object AO 0235+16 is well known for its extreme optical and radio variability. New optical and radio data have been collected in the last four years by a wide international collaboration, which confirm the ...
  • Optical Nuclei of Radio-loud AGN and the Fanaroof-Riley Divide 
    Kharb, P; Shastri, P (EDP Sciences, 2004-10)
    We investigate the nature of the point-like optical nuclei that have been found in the centres of the host galaxies of a majority of radio galaxies by the Hubble Space Telescope. We examine the evidence that these optical ...
  • The parsec-scale central components of FR I radio galaxies 
    Kharb, P; Shastri, P (International Astronomical Union, 2001)
