We report the discovery of the largest giant radio galaxy, J1420-0545: a FR type II radio source with an angular size of 17.4' identified with an optical galaxy at z=0.3067. Thus, the projected linear size of the radio structure is 4.69 Mpc…
We analysed the optical and radio properties of lobe-dominated giant-sized (> 0.72 Mpc) radio quasars and compared the results with those derived for a sample of smaller radio sources to determine whether the large size of some…
We observed SDSS J0836+0054, the most distant radio-loud quasar known at present (z=5.774) with the European Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) Network at the 5 GHz frequency on 2003 November 4. The source is compact at the…
The radio-loud quasar SDSS J102623.61+254259.5, at a redshift z=5.3, is one of the most distant radio-loud objects. Since its radio flux exceeds 100 mJy at a few GHz, it is also one of the most powerful radio-loud sources. We propose that…
The radio-loud quasar SDSS J013127.34-032100.1at a redshift z=5.18 is one of the most distant radio-loud objects. The radio to optical flux ratio (i.e. the radio-loudness) of the source is large, making it a promising blazar candidate. Its…
We present the discovery of a large extended radio jet associated with the extremely radio-loud quasar J1601+3102 at $z\sim5$ from sub-arcsecond resolution imaging at 144 MHz with the LOFAR International Telescope. These large radio lobes…
Only very few z>5 quasars discovered to date are radio-loud, with a radio-to-optical flux ratio (radio-loudness parameter) higher than 10. Here we report the discovery of an optically luminous radio-loud quasar, SDSS J013127.34-032100.1…
We present low-frequency, GMRT (Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope) observations at 333 and 617 MHz of the most-distant giant quasar, J1432+158, which is at a redshift of 1.005. The radio source has a total angular extent of 168 arcsec,…
There are about 50 quasars known at redshifts z>5.7 to date. Only three of them are detected in the radio (J0836+0054, z=5.77; J1427+3312, z=6.12; J1429+5447, z=6.21). The highest-redshift quasars are in the forefront of current…
Giant double-lobed radio source 4C34.47 displays a straight one-sided jet, measuring a record length of 380kpc, in its double-lobed radio structure. Assuming an intrinsically symmetric two-sided jet structure the radio source jet axis must…
The radio-loud quasar SDSS J114657.79+403708.6 at a redshift z=5.0 is one of the most distant radio-loud objects. The IR-optical luminosity and spectrum suggest that its black hole has a very large mass: M=(5+-1)x 1e9 Msun. The…
A radio source of the Fanaroff--Riley type II with the angular size of 11.3 arc min is identified with an optical galaxy at z=0.229. Thus, the projected linear extent of the radio structure is 3.14 Mpc which makes it the third largest…
We present the discovery of the radio-loud quasar PSO J352.4034-15.3373 at z=5.84 pm 0.02. This quasar is the radio brightest source known, by an order of magnitude, at z~6 with a flux density in the range of 8-100 mJy from 3GHz to 230MHz…
We report the 888 MHz radio detection in the Rapid ASKAP Continuum Survey (RACS) of VIK J2318$-$3113, a $z$=6.44 quasar. Its radio luminosity (1.2 $\times 10^{26}$ W Hz$^{-1}$ at 5 GHz) compared to the optical luminosity (1.8 $\times…
We present a new study of the 1.7 Mpc KAT-7-discovered giant radio galaxy, J0133$-$1302, which was carried out using GMRT data at 323 and 608 MHz. This source is located at RA $01^h33^m13^s$ and Dec $-13^{\circ}03^\prime00^{\prime\prime}$…
We report the discovery of an S-shaped morphology of the radio galaxy J0644$+$1043 imaged with a 30 $\mu$Jy sensitive 525 MHz broadband (band 3 $+$ 4) uGMRT map. Dedicated spectroscopic observations of the host galaxy carried out with the…
In this paper we consider the possibility that the structure of the largest radio galaxy J1420-0545 is formed by a restarted rather than a primary jet activity. This hypothesis is motivated by the unusual morphological properties of the…
We present deep (265 ks) Chandra X-ray observations of PSO J352.4034$-$15.3373, a quasar at z=5.831 that, with a radio-to-optical flux ratio of R>1000, is one of the radio-loudest quasars in the early universe and is the only quasar with…
