We present a catalog of compact double radio galaxies (hereafter COMP2$CAT$) listing 43 edge-brightened radio sources whose projected linear size does not exceed 60 kpc, the typical size of their host galaxies. This is the fifth in a series…
We present the results of the first survey and monitoring study of the linear polarisation properties of compact, flat-spectrum radio sources at millimetre/submillimetre wavelengths and discuss the implications of the inferred magnetic…
We have observed a small sample of powerful double radio sources (radio galaxies and quasars) at frequencies around 90 GHz with the BIMA millimetre array, with the intention of constraining the resolved high-frequency spectra of radio…
We have carried out extensive radio and optical follow-up of 176 sources from the 15 GHz 9th Cambridge survey. Optical identifications have been found for 155 of the radio sources; optical images are given with radio maps overlaid. The…
We discovered an X-ray cluster in a recent pointed Chandra observation of the radio-loud compact-steep-spectrum source 1321+045 at the redshift of 0.263. 1321+045 is part of larger survey which aims to study the X-rays properties of weak…
We have previously presented the results of a 325 MHz radio survey of M31, conducted with the A-configuration of the Very Large Array. In this survey, a total of 405 radio sources between <6" and 170" in extent were mapped with a resolution…
We do not fully understand the dynamics and evolution of a radio galaxy. Models of classical double (Type II) sources are in a reasonable state, but these objects are rare. Non-type II sources (generically called Type I) are far more…
We report results on multi-epoch Very Large Array (VLA) and pc-scale Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) observations of candidate compact symmetric objects (CSOs) from the faint sample of high frequency peakers. New VLBA observations could…
We present a comprehensive study of host galaxies of radio sources within the 1.35$R_{200}$ of the Coma cluster by combining deep 144MHz observations from the LOFAR Two-Metre Sky Survey (LoTSS-DR2) with optical spectroscopy and photometry…
We present new radio data completing the imaging for a sample of 30 nearby (z < 0.2) BL Lac objects on parsec and kiloparsec scale. The sample is composed of both high and low luminosity sources and it is therefore an ideal test bed for…
Using radio sources from the Faint Images of the Radio Sky at Twenty-cm (FIRST) survey, and optical counterparts in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), we have identified a large number of galaxy clusters. The radio sources within these…
To investigate the impact of radio jets during the formation epoch of their massive host galaxies, we present an analysis of two massive, log(M_stel/ M_sun)~10.6 and 11.3, compact radio galaxies at z=3.5, TNJ0205+2242 and TNJ0121+1320.…
We present 15-GHz Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array observations of a complete sample of radio galaxies selected at 15.7 GHz from the Tenth Cambridge (10C) survey. 67 out of the 95 sources (71 per cent) are unresolved in the new observations…
A recent multi-year Caltech-NRAO Stripe 82 Survey (CNSS) revealed a group of objects that appeared as new radio sources after $>$5--20 years of absence. They are transient phenomena with respect to the Faint Images of the Radio Sky at…
We have compiled a sample of 234 ultra-steep-spectrum (USS) selected radio sources in order to find high-redshift radio galaxies. The sample covers the declination range -40deg < DEC < -30deg in the overlap region between the 1400-MHz NRAO…
A sample of high-frequency peaker (HFP) candidates was formed from the AT20G catalog radio sources with spectral indices of the optically thick emission region $\alpha_{below}$ exceeding +0.5. A study of the spectral properties of the…
Context: The long-standing question concerning jetted subgalactic-size (JSS) radio sources is whether they will evolve into large radio galaxies, die before escaping the host galaxy, or remain indefinitely confined to their compact size.…
We study the morphology of the radio emission of giant radio galaxies (GRGs), a rare type of active galaxies, in order to find new clues for the reasons of their large size. Using radio images from two sky surveys at 1.4 GHz we quantified…
The simple unification scheme of powerful radio galaxies and quasars, based entirely on the orientation dependent effects, has been confronted with the observed radio structures for 152 radio galaxies and 173 steep spectrum quasars.…
We present 18-cm radio maps of four Seyfert nuclei, Mrk 1, Mrk 3, Mrk 231 and Mrk 463E, made with the European VLBI Network (EVN). Linear radio structures are present in three out of four sources on scales of ~100 pc to ~1 kpc, and the…
