MAGNHIFFIC

Sample

The Table below lists 33 galaxies in the MAGNHIFFIC sample. Green colors mark sources to be observed with MeerKAT open-time with high priority, Cyan colors mark the sources with lower priority (to be observed in the next open-time campaings).  Red colors mark sources observed by MeerKAT in 2022 and 2023. Orange colors mark sources observed by MHONGOOSE while blue cells show galaxies in the Fornax Cluster (i.e. observed by the MeerKAT Fornax Survey). The sample is divided between ra diative AGN and jetted AGN
