Multifrequency observations with the GMRT and the VLA are used to determine the spectral breaks in consecutive strips along the lobes of a sample of selected giant radio sources (GRSs) in order to estimate their spectral ages. The maximum…
Very deep 4.9 GHz observations with the VLA are used to supplement available radio maps at the frequencies of 325 MHz (WENSS survey) and 1.4 GHz (NVSS survey) in order to study the synchrotron spectra and radiative ages of relativistic…
Multifrequency observations with the GMRT and the VLA are used to determine the spectral breaks in consecutive strips along the lobes of a sample of selected giant radio sources (GRSs) in order to estimate their spectral ages. The maximum…
In this paper, the second in a series investigating FR II radio galaxies at low frequencies, we use LOFAR and VLA observations between 117 and 456 MHz in addition to archival data to determine the dynamics and energetics of two radio…
Dynamical ages of the opposite lobes determined {\sl independently} of each other suggest that their ratios are between $\sim$1.1 to $\sim$1.4. Demanding similar values of the jet power and the radio core density for the same GRS, we look…
In the framework of the cosmological model LambdaCDM the features of properties of giant radio sources with steep low-frequency spectra of linear (S) and break (C+) types are examined. Our estimates of characteristic age of galaxies and…
We constrain the spectral ages for two very asymmetric Compact Symmetric Objects (CSO) from the B3-VLA-CSS sample, and we investigate the role of the ambient medium potentially able to influence the individual source evolution.…
We present low-frequency observations starting from ~150 MHz with the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT), and high-frequency observations with the Very Large Array (VLA) of two large radio galaxies 3C46 and 3C452. These observations…
We have used the VLA to study radio variability among a sample of 18 low luminosity active galactic nuclei (LLAGNs), on time scales of a few hours to 10 days. The goal was to measure or limit the sizes of the LLAGN radio-emitting regions,…
Up till now very few dying sources were known, presumably because the dying phase is short at centimeter wavelengths. We therefore have tried to improve the statistics on sources that have ceased to be active, or are intermittently active.…
We propose a new approach in determining ages of FR II type radio sources. We apply the assumed dynamical model of Kaiser et al. (1997) to a number of FR II type radio galaxies observed at different radio frequencies, and fit - for each…
The 'spectral age problem' is our systematic inability to reconcile the maximum cooling time of radiating electrons in the lobes of a radio galaxy with its age as modelled by the dynamical evolution of the lobes. While there are known…
After a brief introduction to the morphological properties of FRI radio sources, we discuss the possibility that FRI jets are relativistic at their bases and decelerate quickly to non-relativistic velocities. From two-frequency data we…
The high-frequency integrated spectra of Compact Steep Spectrum (CSS) sources show breaks with a moderate spectral steepening well fitted by continuous injection synchrotron spectra. In lobe-dominated CSS sources the radiative ages deduced…
The dynamical ages of the opposite lobes of selected giant radio sources are estimated using the DYNAGE algorithm of Machalski et al., and compared with their spectral ages estimated and studied by Jamrozy et al. in Paper II. As expected,…
Radio sources with steep spectra are preferentially associated with the most distant galaxies, the $\alpha-z$ relation, but the reason for this relation is an open question. The spatial distribution of spectra in high-z radio sources can be…
We estimate ages and physical properties of powerful radio galaxies. An analysis of new multi-wavelength VLA observations of eleven very powerful classical double (FRIIb) radio galaxies with redshifts between 0.4 and 1.3 is presented. We…
The mean ages of early-type galaxies obtained from the analysis of optical spectra, give a mean age of 8 Gyr at z = 0, with 40% being younger than 6 Gyr. Independent age determinations are possible by using infrared spectra (5-21 microns),…
We present a radio morphological study and spectral analysis for a sample of 13 cD galaxies in rich and poor clusters of galaxies.} Our study is based on new high sensitivity Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) observations at 1.28 GHz,…
BVRI data for the majority of the objects of the RC catalogue with steep spectra and $m_R<24^m$ are presented. These data have been used to estimate colour redshifts and the age of stellar systems of host galaxies. By way of example of…
