Multi – frequency analysis of the two CSS quasars 3 C 43 & 3 C 298
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present and discuss observations made with MERLIN and VLBI at 1.7 and 5 GHz of the two CSS quasars 3C 43 and 3C 298. They show quite different morphologies, the former being a very distorted triple radio source, the latter a small FRII type object. Relativistic effects and structural distortions are discussed. Source ages are evaluated to be of the order of ≈105 years, therefore 3C 43 and 3C 298 can be considered fairly “young” radio sources. Some inference is also derived on the properties of the medium surrounding the radio emitting regions in these sub–galactic objects, whose density could be as low as 10−3 cm−3.

Lyman-α absorption: links between CSS quasars and high-redshift radio galaxies
Spectroscopy of high-redshift compact steep-spectrum (CSS) quasars shows a high incidence of Ly-α absorption close to the quasar redshift (zabs ≈ zem). Associated absorption systems like these are rare in other types of radio sources, with the notable exception of high-redshift radio galaxies (HZRGs). CSS quasars and HZRGs share many properties; the hypothesis that they are intrinsically simila...

Application of nuclear magnetic resonance imaging (NMRI) as a non-invasive and accurate imaging procedure has been widely used in recent years. Meanwhile, the biological effects of magnetic fields of several tesla (T) and high energy radiofrequency (RF) is not fully known yet. Because of controversy over this issue, the present research has been carried out in order to verify the effects of...

We present the results from the first quasi-simultaneous multi-frequency (2.3, 5.0, 8.4 and 15 GHz) Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) observations of a compact steep spectrum (CSS) superluminal source 3C138. For the first time, the spectral distribution of the components within its central 10 milli-arcsecond (mas) region was obtained. This enables us to identify the component at the west...

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is highly prevalent in thalassemic patients, and this may decrease the serum antibody response to hepatitis B virus (HBV) vaccine. There is also some alteration of the immune system in multi-transfused thalassemic patients, as a consequence of iron overload. We investigated whether HCY infection may reduce the effectiveness of HBY vaccine in multi - transf...

Multi-frequency 1.7, 5 and 8.4-GHz VLBA observations of a radio-loud broad absorption line (BAL) quasar 1045+352 are presented. It is a young compact steep spectrum (CSS) object and its asymmetric, two-sided morphology on a scale of several hundred parsecs, extending in two different directions, may suggest intermittent activity. The young age and unusual morphology of 1045+352 are arguments in...
