Deep optical images have been gathered for a nearly complete sample of radio galaxies from the Revised 3rd Cambridge (3CR) Catalog in the redshift range 0.15 < z < 0.65. Total and nuclear magnitudes and colors have been extracted. The…

We consider evolution properties of galaxies and quasars with steep radio spectrum at the decametre band from the UTR-2 catalogue. The ratios of source's monochromatic luminosities at the decametre and high-frequency bands display the…

The existence of a correlation between observed radio spectral index (alpha) and redshift (z) has long been used as a method for locating high-z radio galaxies. We use 9 highly spectroscopically complete radio samples, selected at different…

In this paper, the third and final of a series, we present complete K-band imaging and some complementary I-band imaging of the filtered 6C* sample. We find no systematic differences between the K-z relation of 6C* radio galaxies and those…

This paper describes an investigation of the early evolution of extragalactic radio sources using samples of faint and bright Gigahertz Peaked Spectrum (GPS) and Compact Steep Spectrum (CSS) radio galaxies. Correlations found between their…

We discuss how different theoretical predictions for the variance $\sigma^2$ of the distribution of radio sources can be matched to measurements from the FIRST survey at different flux limits. The predictions are given by the integration of…

We take a sample of 94 ultraluminous, optical quasars from the search of over 14,486 deg^2 by Onken et al. 2022 in the range 4.4<redshift<5.2 and match them against the Rapid ASKAP Continuum Survey (RACS) observed on the Australian Square…

Quantifying how the baryonic matter traces the underlying dark matter distribution is key to both understanding galaxy formation and our ability to constrain the cosmological model. Using the cross-correlation function of radio and…

We present optical identifications and redshifts for seventeen new high-redshift radio sources. Fifteen of these sources are radio galaxies; the remaining two are high-redshift, steep-spectrum, radio-loud quasars. These objects were…

Distance duality relation (DDR) marks a fundamental difference between expanding and nonexpanding Universes, as an expanding metric causes angular diameter distance smaller than luminosity distance by an extra factor of $(1+z)$. Here we…

Study of high-redshift radio galaxies (HzRGs) can shed light on the active galactic nuclei (AGNs) evolution in massive elliptical galaxies. The vast majority of observed high-redshift AGNs are quasars, and there are very few radio galaxies…

We explore the radio properties of powerful (rest-frame luminosity $\gtrsim10^{28}$ W Hz$^{-1}$ at 500 MHz) high-redshift (z > 3.5) quasars. The aim of this study is to gain a better understanding of radio-loud sources at the epoch when…

We review the statistical properties of the main populations of radio sources, as emerging from radio and millimeter sky surveys. Recent determinations of local luminosity functions are presented and compared with earlier estimates still in…

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…

Next-generation radio surveys are expected to detect tens of millions of active galactic nuclei (AGN) with a median redshift of z > 1. Beyond targeted surveys, the vast majority of these objects will not have spectroscopic redshifts, whilst…

Using a new radio sample, 6C* designed to find radio galaxies at z > 4 along with the complete 3CRR and 6CE sample we extend the radio galaxy K-z relation to z~4.5. The 6C* K-z data significantly improve delineation of the K-z relation for…

By cross-correlating large samples of galaxy clusters with publicly available radio source catalogs, we construct the volume-averaged radio luminosity function (RLF) in clusters of galaxies, and investigate its dependence on cluster…

We present a complete sample of 24 radio-loud quasars (RLQs) from the new 7C Redshift Survey. Every quasar with a low-frequency (151 MHz) radio flux-density S_151 > 0.5 Jy in two regions of the sky covering 0.013 sr is included; 23 of these…

In previous attempts to measure Omega_0 from the angular size-redshift (theta-z) relation of double-lobed radio sources, the observed data have been consistent with a static Euclidean universe, rather than with Friedmann models, and past…

We study the alignment of radio galaxies axes using the FIRST catalogue. we impose several cuts in order to select the candidates which are most likely to be free of systematic bias. In our study we primarily focus on testing for alignment…
