The Linear-size Evolution of Classical Double Radio Sources
Recent investigations of how the median size of extragalactic radio sources change with redshift have produced inconsistent results. Eales (1985) compared the radio and optical properties of a bright 3C and faint 6C sample and concluded that for a universe with 0 = 0 Dmed / (1 + z) 1:1 , with Dmed being the median size of the radio sources at a given epoch and z the redshift. Oort, Katgert, and...
متن کاملModelling the spectral evolution of classical double radio sources
The spectral evolution of powerful double radio galaxies (FR II’s) is thought to be determined by the acceleration of electrons at the termination shock of the jet, their transport through the bright head region into the lobes and the production of the radio emission by synchrotron radiation in the lobes. Models presented to date incorporate some of these processes in prescribing the electron d...
متن کاملHST/NICMOS Observations of the Host Galaxies of Powerful Radio Sources: Does Size Matter?
We present near-infrared J and K band imaging of a sample of powerful radio source host galaxies with the Hubble Space Telescope NICMOS2 camera. These sources have been selected on their double lobed radio structure, and include a wide range of projected radio source sizes. The largest projected linear sizes range from the compact Gigahertz Peaked Spectrum (GPS, < 1 kpc) and Compact Steep Spect...
متن کاملEvolution of Giant Radio Sources
We present radio images of two giant quasars from the Molonglo/1Jy sample, and make a comparative study of giant radio sources selected from the literature with 3CR radio sources of smaller sizes to investigate the evolution of giant sources, and test their consistency with the unified scheme. The luminosity-size diagram shows that the giant sources are less luminous than smaller-sized sources,...
متن کاملThe properties of powerful radio sources at 90 GHz
We have observed a small sample of powerful double radio sources (radio galaxies and quasars) at frequencies around 90 GHz with the BIMA millimetre array, with the intention of constraining the resolved high-frequency spectra of radio galaxies. When combined with other sources we have previously observed and with data from the BIMA archive, these observations allow us for the first time to make...
