A population of galaxy-scale jets discovered using LOFAR
(2020-11-05)
The effects of feedback from high luminosity radio-loud AGN have been extensively discussed in the literature, but feedback from low-luminosity radio-loud AGN is less well understood. The advent of high sensitivity, high ...
The life cycle of radio galaxies in the LOFAR Lockman Hole field
(2020-06-08)
Radio galaxies are known to go through cycles of activity, where phases of apparent quiescence can be followed by repeated activity of the central supermassive black hole. A better understanding of this cycle is crucial ...
Radio spectral properties and jet duty cycle in the restarted radio galaxy 3C388
(2020-06-05)
Context. Restarted radio galaxies represent a unique tool for investigating the duty cycle of the jet activity in active galactic nuclei (AGN). The radio galaxy 3C388 has long been claimed to be a peculiar example of an ...
Giant radio galaxies in the LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey-I
(2020-03-01)
Giant radio galaxies (GRGs) are a subclass of radio galaxies which have grown to megaparsec scales. GRGs are much rarer than normal sized radio galaxies ( less than 0.7 Mpc) and the reason for their gigantic sizes is still ...
