Emission lines and optical continuum in low - luminosity radio galaxies
We present spectroscopic observations of a complete sub-sample of 13 low-luminosity radio galaxies selected from the 2Jy sample. The underlying continuum in these sources is carefully modelled in order to make a much-needed comparison between the emission line and continuum properties of FRIs with those of other classes of radio sources. We find that 5 galaxies in the sample show a measurable U...
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 کاملNuclear radio emission in megaparsec-size radio galaxies
We present high resolution radio observations of the nuclear radio emission in a sample of eight radio galaxies having Megaparsec sizes, using the European VLBI network at 18 cm. At a resolution of 25 mas we detect all the giant radio galaxies from our sample. Among themDA 240 and 1331−099 were imaged for an extended period. These observations reveal a twin-jet structure for DA 240 and one-side...
متن کاملEmission Lines from Companion Galaxies of QSOs
Anticipating new spectroscopic studies of quasar companions, we calculate expected emission line spectra for the companion galaxies. Under the assumption of isotropic photoionizing radiation, we predict equivalent widths for Hα, Hβ, [O iii] λ5007, [O ii] λ3727, [Ne iii] λ3869, and Mg ii λ2798 lines. We consider 6 quasars, two of which (PKS 213514 and PKS 2349-014) have very close companions wit...
متن کاملA Statistical Study of Emission Lines from High Redshift Radio Galaxies ⋆
Abstract. We have compiled a sample of 165 radio galaxies from the literature to study the properties of the extended emission line regions and their interaction with the radio source over a large range of redshift 0 < z < 5.2. For each source, we have collected radio (size, lobe distance ratio and power) and spectroscopic parameters (luminosity, line width and equivalent width) for the four br...
