Description
We study the co-evolution between host galaxies and their central supermassive black hole (SMBH) with an unprecedented large sample of SDSS type-1 quasars which are also detected by the far-infrared (FIR) SPIRE instrument on Herschel. This subset of optical quasars gives us a unique opportunity to study systems for which both star-formation activity and active galactic nucleus (AGN) activity are at the most extreme. Thanks to the well-established far-infrared to radio correlation, we make use of the high angular resolution of the radio observations from telescopes such LOFAR, Meerkat and VLA to cross-match the Herschel sources with the SDSS quasar catalogue. Our sample spans over a wide range of redshifts ($0
