Extended Extragalactic Radio Sources

Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 1976
The most important feature of the extended sources is the double structure characterized in an ideal model by two extended radio-emitting regions situated symmetrically about the nucleus of an optical galaxy or QSO, with a characteristic overall size of about 100 kpc. Not all extended radio sources show this double structure. It has been found that at

Extragalactic radio sources

Proceedings of the IEEE, 1973
More than 10 000 individual discrete sources have been detected by radio surveys made at frequencies from 10 MHz to 5 GHz. Although only a few hundred of these are reliably identified with galaxies or quasars, it is widely believed that the overwhelming majority are extragalactic.

Numerical Models of Extragalactic Radio Sources

Science, 1991
Numerical simulations with supercomputers allow analysis of the wide range of nonlinear physics inherent in the hydrodynamic and magnetohydrodynamic equations. When applied to extragalactic radio sources, these numerical models have begun to reproduce many of the complex structures observed on telescopic images.

Jets in Extragalactic Radio Sources

Science, 1984
Observations now require that there be a continuous supply of energy to the giant extragalactic radio sources. These observations also suggest that this energy input may be in the form of streams or jets of gas emanating from the centers of galaxies and quasi-stellar objects. Current data indicate that the large-scale jet structures are not moving with

Models for Extragalactic Radio Sources

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1986
Doubt is cast on the reality of the following four assumptions commonly made in the treatment of extragalactic radio sources: (1) The central engine is a black hole; (2) Electrons can be accelerated in situ in the knots and heads of the jets, to large Lorentz factors γ ≥ 102, with an efficiency exceeding 30%; (3) The (non-thermal) radiation emitted by ...

Extragalactic Radio Sources

1995
Twelve years after the publication of the first results obtained by Jansky in 1932, which marked the beginning of radio astronomy, Reber observed a radio-emission maximum in the constellation Cygnus. It was the first detection of Cygnus A, one of the brightest of all extragalactic sources (that is, located outside our Galaxy) in the radio region. These

Theory of extragalactic radio sources

Reviews of Modern Physics, 1984
Powerful extragalactic radio sources comprise two extended regions containing magnetic field and synchrotron-emitting relativistic electrons, each linked by a jet to a central compact radio source located in the nucleus of the associated galaxy. These jets are collimated streams of plasma that emerge from the nucleus in opposite directions, along which

Extragalactic radio sources

Advances in Space Research, 1981
Abstract Some recent observational results on extended and compact extragalactic radio sources are described. Theoretical interpretations are critically examined.
