The giant radio galaxy 8C 0821+695 and its environment
We present new VLA and Effelsberg observations of the radio galaxy 8C 0821+695. We have obtained detailed images in total intensity and polarization of this 2 Mpc sized giant. The magnetic field has a configuration predominantly parallel to the source main axis. We observe Faraday rotation at low frequencies, most probably produced by an ionized medium external to the radio source. The spectral...
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 کاملA Large-scale Shock Surrounding a Powerful Radio Galaxy
We report the Chandra detection of a large-scale shock, on scales of 200 kpc, in the cluster surrounding the powerful radio galaxy 3C 444 (PKS 2211−17). Our 20-ks Chandra observation allows us to identify a clear surface brightness drop around the outer edge of the radio galaxy, which is likely to correspond to a spheroidal shock propagating into the intracluster medium. We measure a temperatur...
متن کاملLarge - scale gas disk around the radio galaxy Coma A ?
We present WSRT and VLA radio observations of the neutral hydrogen in the radio galaxy Coma A. We detect extended H I absorption against both radio lobes of Coma A, at distances of about 30 kpc from the centre. Coma A is the first radio galaxy in which H I is seen in absorption at such large distances from the nucleus. The match between the velocities of the neutral hydrogen and those of the ex...
متن کاملA Parsec Scale Accelerating Radio Jet in the Giant Radio Galaxy NGC 315
Observations of the core of the giant radio galaxy NGC315 made with VLBI interferometers are discussed in the context of a relativistic jet. The sidedness asymmetry suggests Doppler favoritism from a relativistic jet. The presence of moving features in the jet as well as jet counter–jet brightness ratios hint at an accelerating, relativistic jet. An increasing jet velocity is also supported by ...
