Design and Commissioning of an LWA Swarm Station: The Long Wavelength Array -- North Arm

C. A. Taylor, J. Dowell, G. B. Taylor +9

Modern radio interferometers are designed with increasingly sprawling geographical footprints, offering enhanced sensitivity and resolution. However, managing such extensive facili…

Exploring Compact Symmetric Objects with Complex Morphologies

E. E. Sheldahl, G. B. Taylor, S. E. Tremblay +9

Compact symmetric objects (CSOs) are a unique class of jetted active galactic nuclei (AGN) defined by sub-kpc radio emission, showing radio structure on both sides of the central e…

Compact Symmetric Objects -- III Evolution of the High-Luminosity Branch and a Possible Connection with Tidal Disruption Events

A. C. S. Readhead, V. Ravi, R. D. Blandford +18

We use a sample of 54 Compact Symmetric Objects (CSOs) to confirm that there are two unrelated CSO classes: an edge-dimmed, low-luminosity class (CSO~1), and an edge-brightened, hi…

Compact Symmetric Objects -- II Confirmation of a Distinct Population of High-Luminosity Jetted Active Galaxies

S. Kiehlmann, A. C. S. Readhead, S. O'Neill +10

Compact Symmetric Objects (CSOs) are compact (<1 kpc), jetted Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), whose jet axes are not aligned close to the line of sight, and whose observed emission i…

Compact Symmetric Objects -- I Towards a Comprehensive Bona Fide Catalog

S. Kiehlmann, M. L. Lister, A. C. S. Readhead +8

Compact Symmetric Objects (CSOs) are jetted Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) with overall projected size <1 kpc. The classification was introduced to distinguish these objects from the…

What defines a compact symmetric object? A carefully vetted sample of CSOs

Anthony C. S. Readhead, Sebastian Kiehlmann, Matthew L. Lister +6

Compact Symmetric Objects (CSOs), young jetted-AGN of overall projected size <1 kpc, are of great interest due to their youth and evolution. The classification was introduced to di…
