Subsequent observations of this galaxy have revealed that it contains a persistent, but variable, radio source. We present e-Multi-Element Radio Linked Interferometer Network, Very Long Baseline Array, and Australia Telescope Compact Array radio observations and Subaru optical observations of WISE J071634.59-190039.2 and find that the persistent radio source is unresolved and must be compact (<0.01 kpc), and that its location is consistent with the optical centre of the galaxy. We conclude that it is likely that WISE J071634.59-190039.2 contains a weak radio active galactic nucleus.STAMPAenOptical and radio astrometry of the galaxy associated with FRB 150418Article10.1093/mnrasl/slw1512-s2.0-84994507163000386157100008https://academic.oup.com/mnrasl/article/463/1/L36/2589663https://arxiv.org/pdf/1607.08257.pdf2016MNRAS.463L..36BFIS/05 - ASTRONOMIA E ASTROFISICAScienze Fisiche Settori ERC (ERC) di riferimento::PE9 Universe sciences: astro-physics/chemistry/biology; solar systems; stellar, galactic and extragalactic astronomy, planetary systems, cosmology, space science, instrumentation::PE9_11 Relativistic astrophysics
