The Virgo cluster is the closest richest nearby galaxy cluster. It is in the formation process, with a number of sub-clusters undergoing merging and interactions. Although a great laboratory to study galaxy evolution and cluster formation,…

The galaxy NGC 4418 harbours a compact ($<20$ pc) core with a very high bolometric luminosity ($\sim10^{11}$L$_\odot$). As most of the galaxy's energy output comes from this small region, it is of interest to determine what fuels this…

We report the results of our observations of HI absorption towards the central region of the rejuvenated radio galaxy 4C29.30 (J0840+2949) with the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT). The radio source has diffuse, extended emission with…

NGC 4441 is a candidate for a merger between a spiral and an elliptical galaxy (S+E merger), because it shows typical tidal structures such as an optical tail and two shells. With a far-infrared luminosity of $\sim 5\cdot 10^9 L_{\odot}$…

We present interferometric observations of CO J=1-0 emission in the central regions of the edge-on galaxy NGC 4631, known for its extended gaseous halo and its tidal interactions. Previous single-dish observations revealed that almost all…

We present the discovery and detailed observations of the radio galaxy 1243+036 (=4C 03.24) at a redshift of $z=3.57$. The most spectacular feature of 1243+036 is the presence of a Ly$\alpha$ halo of luminosity $\sim10^{44.5}$ ergs s$^{-1}$…

We report Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) H{\sc i} 21\,cm imaging of NGC\,4141, the host galaxy of FRB\,20250316A at $z=0.0063$. Our GMRT H{\sc i} 21\,cm images have spatial resolutions, at $z\approx0.0063$, of $\approx0.48-8.0$~kpc,…

We present optical spectra and high-resolution multi-wavelength radio observations of the compact steep-spectrum radio source MRC B1221-423 (z=0.1706). MRC B1221-423 is a very young (~10^5 yr), powerful radio source which is undergoing a…

We report the discovery of extended radio emission in the Phoenix cluster (SPT-CL J2344-4243, z=0.596) with the GMRT at 610 MHz. The diffuse emission extends over a region of at least 400-500 kpc and surrounds the central radio source of…

We present new multi-wavelength data for the NGC 4410 galaxy group. This group contains the peculiar radio galaxy NGC 4410A, which has a distorted double-lobed radio structure. NGC 4410A is strongly interacting with three nearby galaxies,…

Radio observations discovered large scale non thermal sources in the central Mpc regions of dynamically disturbed galaxy clusters (radio halos). The morphological and spectral properties of these sources suggest that the emitting electrons…

We investigate the X-ray properties of the powerful radio galaxy Hercules A (3C 348) using ROSAT HRI, PSPC and ASCA observations. The ASCA data are well fit by a thermal plasma model with a temperature of about 4.3 keV and abundances 0.4…

We present WSRT observations of the neutral hydrogen in the nearby radio galaxy B2 0648+27. In emission, we detect a very large amount of HI (M_HI = 1.1 x 10^10 M_sun) that is distributed in a very extended disk, or ring-like structure, of…

A dynamical model including ram pressure stripping is applied to the strongly HI deficient Virgo spiral galaxy NGC 4522. A carefully chosen model snapshot is compared with existing VLA HI observations. The model successfully reproduces the…

We present VLA maps of the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 7319 at 3.6, 6, and 20 cm. Sub-arcsecond resolution is achieved at 3.6 and 6 cm. The radio emission exhibits a triple structure on a scale of ~4'' (1.7 kpc). All three components have steep…

We report the discovery of a ~500 kpc HI extension southwest of the Virgo Cluster HI-rich pair NGC 4532/DDO 137, detected as part of the Arecibo Legacy Fast ALFA (ALFALFA) Survey. The feature is the longest and most massive HI tail…

We present a detailed study of the peculiar HI-deficient Virgo cluster spiral galaxies NGC 4064 and NGC 4424, using $^{12}$CO 1-0 interferometry, optical imaging and integral-field spectroscopic observations, in order to learn what type of…
