Clarifying the case for retired galaxies
Grazyna Stasinska
TL;DR
This paper addresses misconceptions about retired galaxies, clarifying their characteristics and distinguishing them from active galactic nuclei, in response to prior studies on low-luminosity AGNs.
Contribution
It provides a clarification and correction of the classification of retired galaxies, emphasizing their differences from low-luminosity AGNs.
Findings
Retired galaxies are not active galactic nuclei.
Misclassification can lead to incorrect interpretations of galaxy activity.
Clarification helps refine galaxy classification schemes.
Abstract
