J.; Wucknitz, O.; Yatawatta, S.; Zarka, P. (2016-12-01)
      The low-frequency radio spectra of the hotspots within powerful radio galaxies can provide valuable information about the physical processes operating at the site of the jet termination. These processes are responsible for ...

H.; Pandey, V. N.; Jurusik, W.; Mulcahy, D. D. (2017-09-07)
      We present a new analysis of the widely used relation between cavity power and radio luminosity in clusters of galaxies with evidence for strong AGN feedback. We study the correlation at low radio frequencies using two new ...
