| Abstract: |
In this work, we find a significant intrinsic correlation between the jet power and black hole mass after removing the effect of relativistic beaming in the radio and optical emission. It strongly implies that the jet power is closely connected with the black hole mass. To eliminate the beaming effect in the conventional radio-loudness, we define a new radio-loudness as the ratio of the radio extended luminosity to the optical luminosity estimated from the broad-line luminosity. The strong anti-correlation between the conventional radio-loudness and black hole mass is not present with the newly defined radio-loudness. |
