Synchrotron 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 کاملScintillation-induced Variability in Radio Absorption Spectra against Extragalactic Sources
Abstract. Spectral features absorbed against some radio quasars exhibit ∼ 50mJy variations, with the lines varying both relative to the continuum and, when several lines are present, even relative to one another. We point out that such variability can be expected as a consequence of refractive scintillation caused by the interstellar medium of our Galaxy. Scintillation can cause independent var...
متن کاملYoung Extragalactic Radio Sources
Gigahertz Peaked Spectrum (GPS) sources and Compact Symmetric Objects (CSO) are selected in very different ways, but have a significant overlap in properties. Ever since their discovery it has been speculated that they are young objects, but only recently, strong evidence has been provided indicating that GPS sources and CSOs are indeed the young counterparts of large, extended sources. They ar...
متن کاملCollimation of extragalactic radio jets in compact steep spectrum and larger sources
We study the collimation of radio jets in the high-luminosity Fanaroff-Riley class II sources by examining the dependence of the sizes of hotspots and knots in the radio jets on the overall size of the objects for a sample of compact steep-spectrum or CSS and larger-sized objects. The objects span a wide range in overall size from about 50 pc to 1 Mpc. The mean size of the hotspots increases wi...
متن کاملPlanck intermediate results - XLV. Radio spectra of northern extragalactic radio sources
Continuum spectra covering centimetre to submillimetre wavelengths are presented for a northern sample of 104 extragalactic radio sources, mainly active galactic nuclei, based on four-epoch Planck data. The nine Planck frequencies, from 30 to 857 GHz, are complemented by a set of simultaneous ground-based radio observations between 1.1 and 37 GHz. The single-survey Planck data confirm that the ...
