Exploring the Nature of Weak Chandra Sources near the Galactic Centre
R. M. Bandyopadhyay, K. M. Blundell, Ph. Podsiadlowski +5
We present early results from the first IR imaging of the weak X-ray sources discovered in a recent Chandra survey towards the Galactic Centre. From our VLT observations we will id…
Post-outburst radio spectral evolution of Cygnus X-3
James CA Miller-Jones, Katherine M Blundell, Michael P Rupen +2
Multifrequency VLA and OVRO observations of the radio outburst of Cygnus X-3 in September 2001 are presented, illustrating the evolution of the spectrum of the source over a period…
The ruff of equatorial emission around the SS433 jets: its spectral index and origin
Katherine M Blundell, Michael P Rupen, Amy J Mioduszewski +2
We present unique radio observations of SS433, using MERLIN, the VLBA, and the VLA, which allow us to, for the first time, properly image and derive a meaningful spectral index for…
Extremely red radio galaxies
Chris J. Willott, Steve Rawlings, Katherine M. Blundell
At least half the radio galaxies at z>1 in the 7C Redshift Survey have extremely red colours (R-K>5), consistent with stellar populations which formed at high redshift (z>5). We di…
Deflection of Jets Induced by Jet-Cloud Interactions
S. Mendoza, M. S. Longair
A non--relativistic and relativistic model in which astrophysical jets are deflected on passing through an isothermal high density region is analysed. The criteria for the stabilit…
3C radio sources as they've never been seen before
Katherine Blundell, Namir Kassim, Rick Perley
Low-radio-frequency observations played a remarkable role in the early days of radio astronomy; however, in the subsequent three or four decades their usefulness has largely been i…
