Origin of the ring structures in Hercules A -- Sub-arcsecond 144 MHz to 7 GHz observations

R. Timmerman, R. J. van Weeren, J. R. Callingham +18

The prominent radio source Hercules A features complex structures in its radio lobes. Although it is one of the most comprehensively studied sources in the radio sky, the origin of…

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…

The spectra of jet bases in FR I radio galaxies: implications for particle acceleration

R. A. Laing, A. H. Bridle

We present accurate, spatially resolved imaging of radio spectra at the bases of jets in eleven low-luminosity (Fanaroff-Riley I) radio galaxies, derived from Very Large Array (VLA…

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…

The magnetized medium around the radio galaxy B2 0755+37: an interaction with the intra-group gas

D. Guidetti, R. A. Laing, J. H. Croston +2

We explore the magneto-ionic environment of the isolated radio galaxy B2 0755+37 using detailed imaging of the distributions of Faraday rotation and depolarization over the radio s…

Deep imaging of Fanaroff-Riley Class I radio galaxies with lobes

R. A. Laing, D. Guidetti, A. H. Bridle +2

We present deep, high-resolution imaging of the nearby Fanaroff-Riley Class I (FR I) radio galaxies NGC 193, B2 0206+35, B2 0755+37 and M 84 at frequencies of 4.9 and 1.4 GHz using…
