Investigating the large-scale environment of wide-angle tailed radio galaxies in the local Universe

V. Missaglia, A. Paggi, F. Massaro +7

We present a statistical analysis of the large-scale (up to 2 Mpc) environment of an homogeneous and complete sample, both in radio and optical selection, of wide-angle tailed radi…

An optical spectroscopic survey of the 3CR sample of radio galaxies with z<0.3. V. Implications for the unified model for FRIIs

Ranieri D. Baldi, Alessandro Capetti, Sara Buttiglione +2

We explore the implications of our optical spectroscopic survey of 3CR radio sources with z<0.3 for the unified model (UM) for radio-loud AGN, focusing on objects with a FRII radio…

Exploring the spectroscopic properties of relic radiogalaxies

Alessandro Capetti, Andrew Robinson, Ranieri D. Baldi +4

From an optical spectroscopic survey of 3CR radiogalaxies (RGs) with z<0.3, we discovered three objects characterized by an extremely low level of gas excitation and a large defici…

Spectral Energy Distributions of low-luminosity radio galaxies at z~1-3: a high-z view of the host/AGN connection

Ranieri D. Baldi, Marco Chiaberge, Alessandro Capetti +3

We study the Spectral Energy Distributions, SEDs, (from FUV to MIR bands) of the first sizeable sample of 34 low-luminosity radio galaxies at high redshifts, selected in the COSMOS…

Emission lines in early-type galaxies: active nuclei or stars?

Alessandro Capetti, Ranieri D. Baldi

We selected 27244 nearby, red, giant early-type galaxies (RGEs) from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). In a large fraction (53%) of their spectra the [O III] emission line is de…

An optical spectroscopic survey of the 3CR sample of radio galaxies with z<0.3. IV. Discovery of the new spectroscopic class of relic radio galaxies

Alessandro Capetti, Sara Buttiglione, David J. Axon +6

From an optical spectroscopic survey of 3CR radio galaxies with z<0.3, we discovered a new spectroscopic class of powerful radio-loud AGN. The defining characteristics of these gal…
