Description

SKA precursors are already challenging our understanding of the prevalence of radio AGN across cosmic time. It is vital that that we have the means to interpret these observations in the context of the larger galaxy population and at a cosmological scale. I will present a comparison between radio galaxies in the SIMBA cosmological simulations with that of the MIGHTEE radio continuum survey, and discuss how combining various theoretical models with observations can improve predictions of the global host galaxy and black hole properties of radio AGN and their evolution.
