VLBI, MERLIN and HST observations of the giant radio galaxy 3C236
R. T. Schilizzi, W. W. Tian, J. E. Conway +6
We present VLBI and MERLIN data at 1.66 and 4.99 GHz on the central component coincident with the nucleus of the giant radio galaxy, 3C236. The nuclear radio structure is composed…
High redshift radio galaxies: Beacons to biased hierarchical galaxy formation within large scale structure
C. L. Carilli, G. K. Miley, H. Rottgering +6
We summarize observations of the properties of powerful radio galaxies and their environments from z = 0 to 5. These data show that some high redshift radio galaxies inhabit region…
A search for clusters at high redshift - II. A proto cluster around a radio galaxy at z=2.16
L. Pentericci, J. D. Kurk, H. J. A Rottgering +7
VLT spectroscopic observations of Ly alpha--excess objects in the field of the clumpy radio galaxy 1138-262 at z=2.16 have led to the discovery of 14 galaxies and one QSO at approx…
ISO observations of a sample of Compact Steep Spectrum and GHz Peaked Spectrum Radio Galaxies
C. Fanti, F. Pozzi, R. Fanti +13
We present results from observations obtained with ISOPHOT, on board the ISO satellite, of a representative sample of seventeen CSS/GPS radio galaxies and of a control sample of si…
A Sample of 669 Ultra Steep Spectrum Radio Sources to Find High Redshift Radio Galaxies
Carlos De Breuck, Wil van Breugel, Huub Rottgering +1
Since radio sources with Ultra Steep Spectra (USS; alpha <~ -1.30; S ~ nu^alpha) are efficient tracers of high redshift radio galaxies (HzRGs), we have defined three samples of suc…
