Abstract

We investigate the hypothesis that {gamma}-ray-quiet active galactic nuclei (AGNs) have a greater tendency for jet bending than {gamma}-ray-loud AGNs, revisiting the analysis of Tingay et al. We perform a statistical analysis using a large sample of 351 radio-loud AGNs along with {gamma}-ray identifications from the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT). Our results show no statistically significant differences in jet-bending properties between {gamma}-ray-loud and {gamma}-ray-quiet populations, indicating that jet bending is not a significant factor for {gamma}-ray detection in AGNs.
