    • Investigating the spectral age problem with powerful radio galaxies 

      Mahatma, Vijay H.; Hardcastle, Martin J.; Croston, Judith H.; Harwood, Jeremy; Ineson, Judith; Moldon, Javier (2020-02-01)
      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 ...

    • A low frequency study of linear polarization in radio galaxies 

      Mahatma, Vijay H.; Hardcastle, Martin J.; Harwood, Jeremy; O'Sullivan, Shane P.; Heald, George; Horellou, Cathy; Smith, Daniel J. B. (2020-12-26)
      Radio galaxies are linearly polarized -- an important property that allows us to infer the properties of the magnetic field of the source and its environment. However at low frequencies, Faraday rotation substantially ...
