The X-shaped Radio Galaxy J0725+5835 is Associated with an AGN Pair [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2022 X-shaped radio galaxies (XRGs) are those that exhibit two pairs of unaligned radio lobes (main radio lobes and wings). One of the promising models for the peculiar morphology is jet reorientation.

Host Galaxies of X-Shaped Radio Sources [PDF]
, 2006 The majority of radiation from galaxies containing active galactic nuclei (AGNs) is emitted not by the stars composing the galaxy, but from an active source at the galactic center, most likely a supermassive black hole.

Spectral index variation across X-shaped radio galaxies [PDF]
, 2023 The formation mechanism of the enigmatic subclass of radio galaxies, called 'X-shaped radio galaxies' (XRGs), or 'winged' radio galaxies, which account for $\sim 10\%$ of the radio galaxy population, can be effectively constrained using the radio ...

Normal FRII Radio Galaxies as a Probe of the Nature of X-Shaped Radio Sources [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2008 We present amultiwavelength radio study of a sample of nearby Fanaroff-Riley class II (FRII) radio galaxies,matched with the sample of known X-shaped radio sources in size, morphological properties and redshift, using new Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (

Origin of the Double-peaked Narrow Emission Lines in the Optical Spectra of X-shaped Radio Galaxies
The Astrophysical JournalWe investigate X-shaped radio galaxies (XRGs) with optical double-peaked narrow emission lines (DPNELs) as potential hosts of dual or binary supermassive black holes (SMBHs).

Restarting engine in an X-shaped radio galaxy [PDF]
Proceedings of From Planets to Dark Energy: the Modern Radio Universe — PoS(MRU), 2008 J2018-556, an X-shaped FR-I radio galaxy provides a unique opportunity to discuss the formation scenarios for the extended structures seen in this class of radio sources. An understanding of the origin of X-shaped source structures has important implications for radio galaxy models as well as black hole-black hole mergers.

On the origin of X-shaped radio galaxies [PDF]
Research in Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2012 After a brief, critical review of the leading explanations proposed for the small but important subset of radio galaxies showing an X-shaped morphology (XRGs) we propose a generalized model, based on the jet-shell interaction and spin-flip hypotheses. The most popular scenarios for this intriguing phenomenon invoke either hydrodynamical backflows and ...

A Unified Framework for X-shaped Radio Galaxies
The Astrophysical Journal, 2020 Abstract We propose a radically different picture for X-shaped radio galaxies compared with existing models as transition objects between cold-mode accreting, low-spinning retrograde black holes and low-spinning prograde black holes. This model explains their smaller average black hole masses; their general aversion for cluster compared ...
