Systematic properties of decelerating relativistic jets in low-luminosity radio galaxies
R. A. Laing, A. H. Bridle
We model the kiloparsec-scale synchrotron emission from jets in 10 Fanaroff-Riley Class I radio galaxies for which we have sensitive, high-resolution imaging and polarimetry from t…
Jet and Torus Orientations in High Redshift Radio Galaxies
G. Drouart, C. De Breuck, J. Vernet +6
We examine the relative orientation of radio jets and dusty tori surrounding the AGN in powerful radio galaxies at z > 1. The radio core dominance R = P(20 GHz) /P(500 MHz) serves…
Relativistic jet models for two low-luminosity radio galaxies: evidence for backflow?
R. A. Laing, A. H. Bridle
We show that asymmetries in total intensity and linear polarization between the radio jets and counter-jets in two lobed Fanaroff-Riley Class I (FR I) radio galaxies, B2 0206+35 (U…
A relativistic mixing-layer model for jets in low-luminosity radio galaxies
Y. Wang, C. R. Kaiser, R. Laing +3
We present an analytical model for jets in Fanaroff & Riley Class I (FRI) radio galaxies, in which an initially laminar, relativistic flow is surrounded by a shear layer. We apply…
Jet-environment interactions in FRI radio galaxies
R. A. Laing, A. H. Bridle
There is now unequivocal evidence that the jets in FR I radio galaxies are initially relativistic, decelerating flows. On the assumption that they are axisymmetric and intrinsicall…
A Chandra observation of the X-ray environment and jet of 3C296
M. J. Hardcastle, D. M. Worrall, M. Birkinshaw +2
We have observed the twin-jet radio galaxy 3C296 with Chandra. X-ray emission is detected from the nucleus, from the inner parts of the radio jet, and from a small-scale thermal en…
