We propose that Gigahertz Peak Spectrum (GPS) and Compact Steep Spectrum (CSS) radio sources are the signposts of relativistic jet feedback in evolving galaxies. Our simulations of relativistic jets interacting with a warm, inhomogeneous…

Around 10% of bright low-frequency radio sources observed with the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) show strong Interplanetary Scintillation (IPS) on timescales of a few seconds, implying that almost all their low-frequency radio emission…

According to a generally accepted paradigm, small intrinsic sizes of Compact Steep Spectrum (CSS) radio sources are a direct consequence of their youth, but in later stages of their evolution they are believed to become large-scale sources.…
