Giant Radio Galaxies
Giant radio galaxies (GRGs) are the largest structures associated with single galaxies. Their linear sizes exceed 1 Mpc and so they form the extreme tail of the radio galaxy population. Because they have expanded to such large sizes, GRGs are thought to be the endpoint of radio galaxy evolution and provide important constraints to evolutionary models. They extend well past the environment of th...
متن کاملRadio Continuum Morphology of Southern Seyfert Galaxies ⋆
We present radio observations for 29 southern Seyfert galaxies selected from a volume limited sample with cz < 3600 km s −1 , and declination δ < 0 •. Objects with declination −30 • < δ < 0 • were observed with the Very Large Array (VLA) at 6 cm (4.9 GHz) and objects with δ < −30 • were observed with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) at 3.5 cm (8.6 GHz). Both the VLA and the ATCA obs...
متن کاملLarge-scale Radio Structure in the Universe: Giant Radio Galaxies
Giant radio galaxies (GRGs), with linear sizes larger than 1 Mpc (H0 = 50 km s Mpc), represent the biggest single objects in the Universe. GRGs are rare among the entire population of radio galaxies (RGs) and their physical evolution is not well understood though for many years they have been of special interest for several reasons. The lobes of radio sources can compress cold gas clumps and tr...
متن کاملRadio-Continuum Emission in Polar-Ring Galaxies
We have used the Very Large Array aperture synthesis telescope to conduct a radio continuum survey of polar-ring galaxies, at 20 cm and 6 cm. Forty objects were observed at 20 cm with ≃ 5 resolution. Twenty (50%) of the program sources were detected at 20 cm, down to our 5-σ limit of 0.5 mJy beam−1. This detection rate is similar to those in surveys with comparable sensitivity for early-type ga...
متن کاملA new sample of giant radio galaxies from the WENSS survey II - A multi - frequency
We have formed a complete sample of 26 low redshift (z < ∼ 0.3) giant radio galaxies (GRGs) from the WENSS survey, selected at flux densities above 1 Jy at 325 MHz. We present 10.5-GHz observations with the 100-m Effelsberg telescope of 18 sources in this sample. These observations, together with similar data of the remaining eight sources, are combined with data from the WENSS, NVSS and GB6 su...
