We investigate the nature of the broad-band emission associated with the low-power radio hotspots 3C105 South and 3C445 South. Both hotspot regions are resolved in multiple radio/optical components. High-sensitivity radio VLA, NIR/optical…
We present new high spatial resolution VLT and VLA observations of a sample of nine low-power (P_{1.4 GHz} < 10^{25} W/Hz) radio hotspots. Infrared/optical emission is definitely detected in four of the nine observed objects, resulting in a…
We report the detection at X-rays of the radio/optical hotspot and knots of 3C 303 from a short (15 ksec) Chandra exposure in 2001 March. The X-ray morphology is similar to that of the radio/optical emission with peaks in the X-ray emission…
We present new {\it Chandra} observations of the radio galaxy 3C 445, centered on its southern radio hotspot. Our observations detect X-ray emission displaced upstream and to the west of the radio-optical hotspot. Attempting to reproduce…
We present results from {\em Chandra}/ACIS-S, {\em Spitzer}, {\em XMM-Newton}, {\em HST}, and VLA observations of the radio hot spots, extended environment, and nucleus of the nearby ($z$=0.0597) FR II radio galaxy 3C 33. This is a…
We present Chandra observations of a small sample of nearby classical double radio galaxies which have more than one radio hotspot in at least one of their lobes. The X-ray emission from the hotspots of these comparatively low-power objects…
Chandra X-ray observations of the high redshift (z =1.532) radio-loud quasar 3C270.1 in 2008 February show the nucleus to have a power-law spectrum, Gamma = 1.66 +/- 0.08, typical of a radio-loud quasar, and a marginally-detected Fe Kalpha…
Archival Hubble Space Telescope WFPC2 images were used to search for optical emission associated with the radio jets of a number of luminous quasars. From this search, we report new optical hotspot detections in the well-known blazar…
We report on the {\it Chandra} discovery of large scale non--thermal emission features in the double lobed SSRL quasar 3C 207 (z=0.684). These are: a diffuse emission well correlated with the western radio lobe, a bright one sided jet whose…
In this letter we report a Chandra X-ray detection of the double northern hot spot of the radio quasar 3C 351. The hot spot has also been observed in the optical with the Hubble Space Telescope (R-band) and with the 3.5m. Telescopio…
We compile the radio-optical-X-ray spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of 65 knots and 29 hotspots in 41 active galactic nucleus jets to examine their high energy radiation mechanisms. Their SEDs can be fitted with the single-zone leptonic…
3C295 is a bright, compact steep spectrum source with a well-studied integrated radio spectral energy distribution (SED) from 132 MHz to 15 GHz. However, spatially resolved spectral studies have been limited due to a lack of high resolution…
Spectral analysis of ROSAT PSPC and ASCA archive data and a recent ROSAT HRI observation of the powerful FRII radio galaxy 3C 219 reveal an absorbed point-like source, coincident with the nucleus, and a non-thermal extended component…
We discuss, in terms of particle acceleration, the results from optical VLT observations of hot spots associated with radio galaxies. On the basis of observational and theoretical grounds, it is shown that: 1. relatively low radio-radio…
We have made deep Chandra observations of three powerful FRII radio sources: two quasars (3C263 and 3C351) and one radio galaxy (3C330). X-ray emission from hotspots and lobes, as well as from the active nucleus, is detected in each source.…
Models of radio galaxy physics have been primarily based on high frequency ($\geqslant$1 GHz) observations of their jets, hotspots, and lobes. Without highly resolved low frequency observations, which provide information on older plasma,…
We present results from a 49.4 ks Chandra/ACIS-S observation of the nearby ($z$=0.059) X-shaped FRII radio galaxy 3C~403. This is the first Chandra observation of an X-shaped radio galaxy, and one of the goals of this pioneering study is to…
We study for the first time the low-frequency ($\sim$150 MHz) radio brightness distribution of Arp~299 at subarcsecond resolution, tracing in both compact and extended emission regions the local spectral energy distribution (SED) in order…
We report on the very first radio detection associated with the peculiar hourglass-morphology X-rays surrounding 3C 294 at z=1.8. Using International Low Frequency Array (LOFAR) data at 144 MHz and Chandra data at 0.3-6 keV, we find that…
Inverse Compton (IC) scattering of nuclear photons with relativistic electrons in the lobes of powerful radio galaxies and quasars can give detectable extended X-ray emission from the radio lobes if relativistic electrons with a Lorentz…
