3C254: MERLIN observations of a highly asymmetric quasar
P. Thomasson, D. J. Saikia, T. W. B. Muxlow
Multifrequency, high-resolution radio observations of the quasar 3C254 using MERLIN are presented. The quasar has a highly asymmetric radio structure, with the eastern component of…
FIRST-based survey of Compact Steep Spectrum sources, II. MERLIN and VLA observations of Medium-sized Symmetric Objects
Magdalena Kunert-Bajraszewska, Andrzej Marecki, Peter Thomasson +1
A new sample of candidate Compact Steep Spectrum (CSS) sources that are much weaker than the CSS source prototypes has been selected from the VLA FIRST catalogue. MERLIN `snapshot'…
Radio sources at low Galactic latitudes
D. J. Saikia, P. Thomasson, S. Roy +2
We present high-resolution radio observations of a sample of 65 radio sources at low Galactic latitudes. The sources were all observed at 5 GHz with the Very Large Array A-array. M…
3C459: A highly asymmetric radio galaxy with a starburst
P. Thomasson, D. J. Saikia, T. W. B. Muxlow
Multifrequency radio observations of the radio galaxy 3C459 using MERLIN, VLA and the EVN, and an optical HST image using the F702W filter are presented. The galaxy has a very asym…
Symmetry Parameters of CSS Sources: Evidence of Fuelling?
D. J. Saikia, S. Jeyakumar, F. Mantovani +4
The compact steep spectrum (CSS) and gigahertz peaked spectrum (GPS) sources are widely believed to be young radiosources, with ages <10^6 yr. If the activity in the nucleus is fue…
