\section{Summary -incomplete}
SMBH grow by merging with other black holes or by accretion The aim of
matter which is this research project was to investigate the
process presence of
attracting mater via a gravitational force leading enhanced radio jet activity due to
a growth the merging of
quasars. Through the results obtained we deduced that astrophysical phenomena (in our study) change as the separation between interacting quasars changes i.e. we note the
attracting agent. effect of the merging of AGN by noting the change in activity of interacting galaxies.
Our SMBH grow by merging with other black holes or by accretion of matter which is the process of attracting mater via a gravitational force leading to a growth of the attracting agent, and this growth promotes activity in the host galaxy. The results show that
there is a change/ enhancement in the AGN activity. The increase in AGN activity is directly linked to a reduced separation between interacting quasars – i.e. an increase in the activity of the two interacting central SMBHs leads to increased overall activity in the merging
galaxies of
quasars induces black hole which jet activity
i.e. accretion. forms a part of. We thus accredit an enhancement in radio jet activity to AGN merging events
We have produced evidence The results are not surprising as similar conclusions were reached in studies done in the X-ray range \cite{Koss_2012, Liu_2011}.
one of
that galaxy mergers induce black hole accretion and start formation. the main challenges in the study was the physical limitations of the SDSS. Observations at smaller projected separations are hampered as small separations are difficult to resolve using current SDSS technology. This
in turn limits the ability to make solid inferences on the available data.This is perhaps proof to the claim that: "AGN pairs denote a special population of galaxy pairs, in which the central SMBHs of both galaxies are
actively accreting at the same time" \citet{Liu_2012}. There are clear selection effects and biases, however, the more we do this, the more we overcome those.
We have observed that mergers increase AGN activity which translates to enhanced (increased) jet or radio activity, and we can now conclude that perhaps the most active AGN today may be the result of the merging of smaller galaxies.
one of the main challenges in the study is the physical limitations of the SDSS. Observations at smaller projected separations are hampered as small separations are difficult to resolve using current SDSS technology. This in turn limits the ability to make solid inferences on the available data.
from our post-merger data we postulate that enhanced AGN activity continues as AGN merge. This postulate is investigated further in Deane et al. (2015).
