    We present our results from global VLBI observations of a sample of Seyfert galaxies at 5 GHz. Our goal was to test predictions of the Unified Scheme for Seyfert galaxies, in which observed differences between Seyferts of ...
  • Seyfert Galaxies: Nuclear Radio Structure and Unification 
    Lal, D. V; Shastri, P; Gabuzda, D. C (IOP Publishing, 2011-04-10)
    A radio study of a carefully selected sample of 20 Seyfert galaxies that are matched in orientation-independent parameters, which are measures of intrinsic active galactic nucleus power and host galaxy properties, is ...
  • Seyfert Galaxies: Radio Continuum Emission Properties and the Unification Scheme 
    Singh, V; Shastri, P; Athreya, R (Indian Academy of Sciences, 2011-12)
    Seyfert galaxies are classified mainly into type 1 and type 2 depending on the presence and absence of broad permitted emission lines in their optical spectra, respectively. Unification scheme hypothesizes that the ...
  • Seyferts and their radio morphology 
    Shastri, P (Taylor and Francis, 2001-08)
    In this short review, current knowledge of the radio structure of Seyfert Galaxies is briefly outlined and its application in addressing 3 key debates, viz., the validity of the Unified Scheme, the validity of the starburst ...
  • Seyferts at milli-arcsec scales 
    Lal, D. V; Shastri, P; Gabuzda, D (Astronomical Society of India, 2000)
    We have observed a sample of Seyfert galaxies using Global Very Long Baseline Interferometry at 5 GHz. Our goal is to investigate the systematics of their nuclear radio morphology on milli-arcsecond scales. We have chosen ...
  • Spectroscopy of Seyferts in the Far-UV 
    Shastri, P; Murthy, J; Hutchings, J (Astronomical Society of India, 2003)
    We present our preliminary far-ultraviolet spectra of the Seyfert Mrk 533 obtained with FUSE. These are among the first FUV spectra of a purportedly edge-on Seyfert, and show narrow OVI emission as well as some evidence ...
  • Suzaku X-ray spectral study of the Compton-thick Seyfert galaxy NGC 5135 
    Singh, V; Risaliti, G; Braito, V; Shastri, P (Wiley-Blackwell, 2012-01)
    We present the 0.5–50 keV Suzaku broad-band X-ray spectral study of the Compton-thick active galactic nucleus (AGN) in NGC 5135. The Suzaku observation provides the first detection of NGC 5135 above 10 keV that allowed us, ...
  • Systematics of jets using multi-wavelength data 
    Shastri, P; Gomez, E. J; Gupta, M; Madejski, G (Cambridge University Press, 2015-03)
    We investigate the systematics of the properties of highly relativistic jets at multiple frequencies, including Fermi, and MOJAVE data. We test the hypothesis that the blazar divide constitutes a dichotomy. We also explore ...
  • Towards gender equity in physics in India: initiatives, investigations, and questions 
    Shastri, P; Kurup, A; Resmi, L; Ramaswamy, R; Ubale, S; Bagchi, S; Rao, S; Narasimhan, S (AIP Publishing, 2015-12)
    Initiatives towards gender parity in the sciences in India have occurred both at national, governmental levels and at local, institutional levels. A gender gap persists in physics, but data suggest that ...

    Hennessey, Eden; Cole, Joanne; Shastri, P; Esquivel, Jessica; Singh, Chandralekha; Johnson, Rosie; Ghose, Shohini (AIP Publishing, 2019-06)
    The concept of intersectionality refers to how our various social identities (e.g., gender, race, class) overlap to create power, privilege, or marginalization. We report on a workshop held at the International Conference ...

    Singh, V; Shastri, P (American Institute of Physics, 2008-08)
