We present here an extension of our search for EISERS (Extremely Inverted Spectrum Extragalactic Radio Sources) to the northern hemisphere. With an inverted radio spectrum of slope $\alpha$ $>$ + 2.5, these rare sources would either require…

Megahertz peaked-spectrum (MPS) sources have spectra that peak at frequencies below 1 GHz in the observer's frame and are believed to be radio-loud active galactic nuclei (AGN). We recently presented a new method to search for high-redshift…

We present flux densities and polarization percentages of 159 radio galaxies based on nearly simultaneous VLA observations at four frequencies from 5 to 43GHz. This sample is selected from the high-frequency Australia Telescope 20GHz…

Aims and Methods: We present the results of VLBI observations of nineteen GHz-Peaked-Spectrum (GPS) radio sources at 1.6 GHz. Of them, 15 sources are selected from the Parkes Half Jansky (PHJ) sample (Snellen 2002), 4 others are from our…

Compact, steep-spectrum radio sources are key tracers of exotic astrophysical objects such as pulsars and high-redshift radio galaxies. All-sky radio surveys at different frequencies, like the TIFR-GMRT Sky Survey (TGSS) and the NRAO VLA…

Since radio sources with Ultra Steep Spectra (USS; alpha <~ -1.30; S ~ nu^alpha) are efficient tracers of high redshift radio galaxies (HzRGs), we have defined three samples of such USS sources using the recently completed WENSS, TEXAS,…

We have analysed VSOP (VLBI Space Observatory Programme) data at 5 GHz and ground-based VLBI (Very Long Baseline Interferometry) data at 15 GHz for the GHz-Peaked Spectrum (GPS) radio galaxy 2021+614. Its morphology is consistent with it…

We present XMM-Newton observations of a complete sample of five archetypal young radio-loud AGN, also known Gigahertz Peaked Spectrum (GPS) sources. They are among the brightest and best studied GPS/CSO sources in the sky, with radio powers…

Multi-frequency, multi-epoch ATCA observations of a sample of AGN resulted in the identification of 9 new candidate Giga-hertz Peaked Spectrum (GPS) sources. Here we present Long Baseline Array observations at 4.8 GHz of the four candidates…

We present the results of a search for megaparsec-scale sources in the NVGRC catalog of candidates of giant radio source (GRS) based on the NVSS sky survey. We visually inspected 370 NVGRC sources, as well as radio sources falling within a…

We present a sample of 373 peaked-spectrum (PS) sources with spectral peaks around 150MHz, selected using a subset of two LOFAR all-sky surveys, the LOFAR Two Meter Sky Survey and the LOFAR LBA Sky Survey. These surveys are the most…

We report on a search for steep spectrum radio sources within the 95% confidence error ellipses of the Fermi unassociated sources from the Large Array Telescope (LAT). Using existing catalogs and the newly released GMRT all-sky survey at…

We have started a search for High Redshift Radio Galaxies (HZRGs) in an area covering 7 sr by selecting a sample of Ultra Steep Spectrum (USS) sources with a low flux density cut-off S(1400 MHz) > 10 mJy and a steep spectral index cut-off…

The latest generation of radio astronomy interferometers will conduct all sky surveys with data products consisting of petabytes of spectral line data. Traditional approaches to identifying and parameterising the astrophysical sources…

We present the first multi-frequency VLBI images of PKS 2254-367, a Giga-hertz Peaked Spectrum (GPS) radio source hosted by the nearby galaxy IC 1459 (D=20.5 Mpc). PKS 2254-367 and the radio source in NGC 1052 (PKS 0238-084; D=17.2 Mpc) are…

A new sample of very large angular size radio sources has been selected from the 1.4 GHz VLA surveys: FIRST and NVSS. This sample will be very useful for an observational constraint on the time evolution of double radio sources, especially…

Extragalactic peaked-spectrum radio sources are thought to be the progenitors of larger, radio-loud active galactic nuclei (AGN). Synchrotron self-absorption (SSA) has often been identified as the cause of their spectral peak. The…

Combining our own observations with data from the literature, we consider the incidence of HI absorption in Gigahertz Peaked Spectrum (GPS) and Compact Steep Spectrum (CSS) sources. Here we present our preliminary results, where we find…

It is currently accepted that compact and bright radio sources characterized by a convex spectrum peaking at frequencies ranging from 100 MHz to a few GHz are young objects. In this scenario, high frequency peaker (HFP) radio sources, with…
