Chandra Reveals Twin X-ray Jets in the Powerful Fr Ii Radio Galaxy 3c 353
We report X-ray imaging of the powerful FR II radio galaxy 3C 353 using the Chandra X-ray Observatory. 3C 353’s two 4′′-wide and 2′-long jets allow us to study in detail the internal structure of the large-scale relativistic outflows at both radio and X-ray photon energies with the sub-arcsecond spatial resolution provided by the VLA and Chandra instruments. In a 90 ks Chandra observation, we h...
متن کاملMolecular Gas in 3c 293: the First Detection of Co Emission and Absorption in an Fr Ii Radio Galaxy
The first detection of CO emission in a Fanaroff-Riley Class II (i.e., edge-brightened radio morphology) radio galaxy is presented. Multiwavelength (0.36-2.17 μm) imaging of 3C 293 shows it to be a disk galaxy with an optical jet or tidal tail extending towards what appears to be a companion galaxy 28 kpc away via a low surface brightness envelope. The molecular gas appears to be distributed in...
متن کاملDiscovery of a Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 galaxy
We have discovered a Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 (NLS1) galaxy and identified it with an ultrasoft X-ray source (RX 215319-1514) detected with ROSAT . We present its X-ray and optical spectral characteristics. Its redshift is found to be 0.0778±0.0002. Its optical spectrum shows fairly strong Fe II emission lines, and its X-ray spectrum has an extremely steep power-law index of Γ ≥4, making it an ext...

3C 216 has a weak accretion flow luminosity, well below the Seyfert1/QSO dividing line, weak broad emission lines (BELs) and powerful radio lobes. As a consequence of the extreme properties of 3C 216, it is the most convincing example known of an FR II radio source that is kinetically dominated: the jet kinetic luminosity, Q, is larger than the total thermal luminosity (IR to X-ray) of the accr...
متن کاملExtended and Compact X-ray Emission from the Powerful Radio Galaxy 3c 220.1
We report on ROSAT HRI observations of the z = 0.61 radio galaxy 3C 220.1. The X-ray emission from this object consists of an extended component, which we attribute to luminous cluster emission, and a compact central source. The compact component is too bright to be modelled as a cooling flow under some plausible assumptions for the hot gas temperature and distribution; we suggest instead that ...
