Images covering the central 450 by 100 arcsecond (about 8.0 by 2.0 kpc) of NGC 5128 (Centaurus A) obtained using SCUBA at 850 and 450 micron with beam sizes of 14.5 and 8 arcsecond respectively, are presented. These data are compared with…

The z~1 radio galaxy 3C280 has a striking rest-frame UV morphology, with multiple line and continuum components precisely aligned with the radio structure, including an obvious semi-circular arc. We explore the nature of these various…

We present an investigation into the spatial variation of the rest-frame UV and optical line and continuum emission along the radio axis of the z=2.6 radio galaxy 0828+193, using long-slit spectra from the Keck II and Subaru telescopes.…

Emission from the nucleus of the closest radio galaxy, Centaurus A, is observed from the radio to the gamma ray band. We build, for the first time, its overall Spectral Energy Distribution (SED) that appears to be intriguingly similar to…

We report the most detailed $1-3$ GHz radio continuum emission map of the nearest region of massive star formation, the Carina Nebula. As part of a large program with the Australia Telescope Compact Array, we have covered $\sim$ 12 deg$^2$,…

We present new ATCA 21-cm line observations of the neutral hydrogen in the nearby radio galaxy Centaurus A. We image in detail (with a resolution down to 7", ~100pc) the distribution of HI along the dust lane. Our data have better velocity…

Context. High redshift radio galaxies are among the most massive galaxies at their redshift, are often found at the center of protoclusters of galaxies, and are expected to evolve into the present day massive central cluster galaxies. Thus…

We present sensitive 1.3 cm radio continuum observations of the region OMC1 South (OMC-1S) in Orion using the Very Large Array in its B configuration. We detect eleven radio sources clustered in a $30{''} \times 30{''}$ region, of which…

We present near ultraviolet imaging with the Hubble Space Telescope Advanced Camera for Surveys, targeting young radio galaxies (Gigahertz Peaked Spectrum and Compact Steep Spectrum sources), in search of star formation regions in their…

We present a deep, 8$\degr$ diameter, 0.4 GHz radio image using a first time combination of the NAIC Arecibo 305-m telescope in Puerto Rico, and the wide-angle interferometer at the Dominion Radio Astrophysical Observatory at Penticton,…

Optical and near-IR Hubble Space Telescope and Gemini-North adaptive optics images, further improved through deconvolution, are used to explore the gravitationally lensed radio source PKS 1830-211. The line of sight to the quasar at z=2.507…

We present sensitive radio continuum images at high resolution of 37 radio galaxies at z > 2. The observations were made with the Very Large Array (VLA) at 4.7 GHz and 8.2 GHz, with typical resolutions of 0.45'' and 0.25'', respectively.…

We present K-band spectra of newly born OB stars in the obscured Galactic giant H II region W51A and ~ 0.8'' angular resolution images in the J, H and K_S-bands. Four objects have been spectroscopically classified as O-type stars. The mean…

We report the discovery of a unique object in the MeerKAT Galaxy Cluster Legacy Survey (MGCLS) using the machine learning anomaly detection framework Astronomaly. This strange, ring-like source is 30' from the MGCLS field centred on Abell…

NGC 5128 (Centaurus A), the closest giant elliptical galaxy outside the Local Group to the Milky Way, is one of the brightest extragalactic radio sources. It is distinguished by a prominent dust lane and powerful jets, driven by a…

A series of new radio-continuum ({\lambda}=20, 13, 6 and 3 cm) mosaic images focused on the NGC55 galactic system were produced using archived observational data from the Australia Telescope Compact Array. These new images are both very…

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 examine Chandra observations of the powerful Fanaroff-Riley class II (FR II) radio galaxy Cygnus A for an X-ray counterpart to the radio transient Cygnus A-2 that was first detected in 2011. Observations are performed using the…

We analyze the properties of a sample of X-shaped radio-sources (XRSs). These objects show, in addition to the main lobes, a pair of wings producing their peculiar radio morphology. We obtain our sample by selecting from the initial list of…

Centaurus A (Cen A) is a bright radio source associated with the nearby galaxy NGC 5128 where high-resolution radio observations can probe the jet at scales of less than a light-day. The South Pole Telescope (SPT) and the Atacama Pathfinder…
