Barbell-shaped giant radio galaxy with ~100 kpc kink in the jet

Pratik Dabhade, Timothy W. Shimwell, Joydeep Bagchi +8

We present for the first time a study of peculiar giant radio galaxy (GRG) J223301+131502 using deep multi-frequency radio observations from GMRT (323, 612, and 1300 MHz) and LOFAR…

RAD@home citizen science discovery of an AGN spewing a large unipolar radio bubble onto its merging companion galaxy

Ananda Hota, Pratik Dabhade, Sravani Vaddi +8

AGN feedback during galaxy merger has been the most favoured model to explain black hole-galaxy co-evolution. However, how the AGN-driven jet/wind/radiation is coupled with the gas…

Measuring the giant radio galaxy length distribution with the LoTSS

Martijn S. S. L. Oei, Reinout J. van Weeren, Aivin R. D. J. G. I. B. Gast +6

Radio galaxies are luminous structures created by the jets of supermassive black holes, and consist of atomic nuclei, relativistic electrons, and magnetic fields. In exceptional ca…

Decoding the giant extragalactic radio sources

Pratik Dabhade, D. J. Saikia, Mousumi Mahato

Giant radio sources (GRSs) defined to be > 0.7 Mpc are the largest single objects in the Universe and can be associated with both galaxies (GRGs) and quasars (GRQs). They are impor…

X-shaped radio galaxy 3C 223.1: A 'double boomerang' with an anomalous spectral gradient

Gopal-Krishna, Pratik Dabhade

A comparison of the recent LOFAR 144 MHz map of the radio source 3C 223.1 (J094124.028+394441.95) with the VLA maps at 4.9 GHz and 8.3 GHz that we built based on archival data, est…

Discovery of X-shaped Morphology of the Giant Radio Galaxy GRG 0503-286

Pratik Dabhade, Gopal-Krishna

The high surface-brightness sensitivity of the GLEAM survey image of the giant radio galaxy GRG 0503-28 at 70-230 MHz has revealed an inversion-symmetric bending of its two lobes,…
