Abstract:
Accurate active galactic nucleus (AGN) identifications and spatially
resolved host galaxy properties are a powerful combination for studies
of the role of AGNs and AGN feedback in the coevolution of galaxies
and their central supermassive black holes. Here, we present robust
identifications of 406 AGNs in the first 6261 galaxies observed by the
integral field spectroscopy survey Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache
Point Observatory (MaNGA). Instead of using optical line flux ratios,
which can be difficult to interpret in light of the effects of shocks
and metallicity, we identify the AGNs via mid-infrared Wide-field
Infrared Survey Explorer colors, Swift/BAT ultrahard X-ray detections,
NVSS and FIRST radio observations, and broad emission lines in SDSS
spectra. We subdivide the AGNs into radio-quiet and radio-mode AGNs,
and examine the correlations of the AGN classes with host galaxy star
formation rates and stellar populations. When compared to the
radio-quiet AGN host galaxies, we find that the radio-mode AGN host
galaxies are preferentially elliptical, lie further beneath the
star-forming main sequence (with lower star formation rates at fixed
galaxy mass), have older stellar populations, and have more negative
stellar age gradients with galactocentric distance (indicating
inside-out quenching of star formation). These results establish a
connection between radio-mode AGNs and the suppression of star
formation.
