Near-infrared spectroscopy of powerful compact steep-spectrum radio sources
We have obtained near-infrared spectroscopy of a small sample of powerful Compact Steep-Spectrum (CSS) radio sources mainly, but not exclusively, from the 3CR sample. We find no differences between the distributions in the equivalent width and luminosity of the [Oiii]5007 line for our sample and other larger, presumably older, high-redshift 3C objects, suggesting that the underlying quasar lumi...
متن کاملSynchrotron Spectra and Ages of Compact Steep Spectrum Radio Sources
The high-frequency integrated spectra of Compact Steep Spectrum (CSS) sources show breaks with a moderate spectral steepening well fitted by continuous injection synchrotron spectra. In lobe-dominated CSS sources the radiative ages deduced by the synchrotron theory are in the range of up to 10 years, if equipartition magnetic fields are assumed. These radiative ages are well correlated with the...
متن کاملSpectroscopy of Ultra Steep Spectrum Radio Sources
We present optical spectroscopy of 62 objects selected from several samples of ultra steep spectrum (USS) radio sources. 46 of these are from our primary catalog, consisting of 669 sources with radio spectral indices α < −1.30 (Sν ∝ ν); this first spectroscopic sub-sample was selected on the basis of their faint optical and near-IR identifications. Most are identified as narrow-lined radio gala...
متن کاملSmall-scale structures in Compact Steep-Spectrum and GHz-Peaked-Spectrum radio sources
We determine the small-scale structure for a large sample of Compact Steep Spectrum (CSS) and Gigahertz Peaked Spectrum (GPS) sources and a sample of larger radio sources at 327 MHz using the technique of Inter-Planetary Scintillation (IPS) with the Ooty Radio Telescope. Our observations provide structural information on angular scales ranging from about 50 to a few hundred milliarcsec. We esti...
متن کاملThe host galaxies of Compact Steep Spectrum and Gigahertz-Peaked Spectrum radio sources
I will review some of the developments in studies of the host galaxy properties of Compact Steep Spectrum (CSS) and GigaHertz-Peaked Spectrum (GPS) radio sources. In contrast to previous reviews structured around observational technique, I will discuss the host galaxy properties in terms of morphology, stellar content and warm gas properties and discuss how compact, young radio-loud AGN are key...
