A multifrequency study of possible relic lobes in giant radio sources

Sagar Godambe, C. Konar, D. J. Saikia, P. J. Wiita

摘要:

我们目前的低频观测与巨型米波射电望远镜(GMRT)的三个巨大的无线电源(GRSs,J0139+3957,J0200+4049和J0807+7400)与宽松的弥漫叶,没有热点和喷流的证据。其中最大的J0200+4049在西叶中心有一个凹陷,而J0139+3957和J0807+7400则分别被Klein等人和Lara等人认为是遗迹射电源。我们估计了脑叶的年龄。我们还介绍了J0807+7400核心的甚大天线阵(VLA)观测,并确定了所有三个源的核心无线电频谱。虽然无线电核心表明,目前的来源是活跃的,我们探讨的可能性,在这些来源的叶是由于早期的活动周期。

英文摘要:

We present low-frequency observations with the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) of three giant radio sources (GRSs, J0139+3957, J0200+4049 and J0807+7400) with relaxed diffuse lobes which show no hotspots and no evidence of jets. The largest of these three, J0200+4049, exhibits a depression in the centre of the western lobe, while J0139+3957 and J0807+7400 have been suggested earlier by Klein et al. and Lara et al. respectively to be relic radio sources. We estimate the ages of the lobes. We also present Very Large Array (VLA) observations of the core of J0807+7400, and determine the core radio spectra for all three sources. Although the radio cores suggest that the sources are currently active, we explore the possibility that the lobes in these sources are due to an earlier cycle of activity.
