Deep Chandra observations of Pictor A

M. J. Hardcastle, E. Lenc, M. Birkinshaw +7

We report on deep Chandra observations of the nearby broad-line radio galaxy Pictor A, which we combine with new Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) observations. The new X-ra…

Spectral ageing in the lobes of cluster-centre FR-II radio galaxies

Jeremy Harwood, Martin Hardcastle, Judith Croston

Recent investigations have shown that many parameters and assumptions made in the application of spectral ageing models to FR-II radio galaxies (e.g. injection index, uniform magne…

Centaurus A: constraints on the nature of the giant lobe filaments from XMM-Newton observations

Sarka Wykes, Martin J. Hardcastle, Judith H. Croston

We report on deep XMM-Newton observations of the vertex filament in the southern giant lobe of the Fanaroff-Riley class I radio galaxy Centaurus A. We find no X-ray excess from the…

The LOFAR Multifrequency Snapshot Sky Survey (MSSS) I. Survey description and first results

G. H. Heald, R. F. Pizzo, E. Orrú +147

We present the Multifrequency Snapshot Sky Survey (MSSS), the first northern-sky LOFAR imaging survey. In this introductory paper, we first describe in detail the motivation and de…

The link between accretion mode and environment in radio-loud active galaxies

Judith Ineson, Judith H. Croston, Martin J. Hardcastle +3

The interactions between radio-loud AGN and their environments play an important role in galaxy and cluster evolution. Recent work has demonstrated fundamental differences between…
