A VLBA-uGMRT search for candidate binary black holes: Study of six X-shaped radio galaxies with double-peaked emission lines [PDF]
ABSTRACT Identifying methods to discover dual active galactic nucleus (AGN) has proven to be challenging. Several indirect tracers have been explored in the literature, including X/S-shaped radio morphologies and double-peaked (DP) emission lines in the optical spectra.

The Unusual Active Galaxy H1821+643 and the Elusive Nature of FRI Quasars [PDF]
The moderate spin estimate for the black hole at the center of the cool core cluster H1821+643 motivates the completion of a story about this object’s origin and evolution that was in the making since the work by Blundell & Rawlings over two decades ago ...

GMRT Low-frequency Imaging of an Extended Sample of X-shaped Radio Galaxies [PDF]
Abstract We present a low-frequency imaging study of an extended sample of X-shaped radio sources using the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) at two frequencies (610 and 240 MHz). The sources were drawn from a Very Large Array Radio Images of the Sky at Twenty-Centimeters (FIRST) selected sample and extend an initial GMRT study at ...

NGC 326: X-shaped no more [PDF]
We present new 144-MHz Low-Frequency Array (LOFAR) observations of the prototypical ‘X-shaped’ radio galaxy NGC 326, which show that the formerly known wings of the radio lobes extend smoothly into a large-scale, complex radio structure.

“Winged” Radio Sources from the LOFAR Two-meter Sky Survey First Data Release (LoTSS DR1)
A small number of extragalactic radio sources disclose a pair of low-surface-brightness radio lobes, known as “wings,” aligned at a certain angle to the primary jets. Such exotic sources are known as “winged” radio sources.

VLA Polarimetry of Two Extended Radio Galaxies [PDF]
Multi-wavelength VLA observations of two extended radio galaxies, 0235-197 and 1203+043 are presented. There is some evidence from earlier studies that these two sources exhibit low frequency (

Weak-lensing Analysis of the Complex Cluster Merger A746 with Subaru/Hyper Suprime-Cam
The galaxy cluster A746 ( z = 0.214), featuring a double radio relic system, two isolated radio relics, a possible radio halo, disturbed V-shaped X-ray emission, and intricate galaxy distributions, is a unique and complex merging system.
