来自FIRST巡天的双-双射电星系

Double-double radio galaxies from the FIRST survey

S. Nandi, D. J. Saikia

摘要:

我们已经检查了由Proctor(2011)从FIRST(20厘米射电天空的微弱图像)调查(2003年4月发布,811,117条目)中的源形态研究中分类为双-双射电源的242个源的样本的射电结构和光学识别。我们已经能够确认其中只有23个可能是双-双射电星系(DDRG),其结构可以归因于其宿主星系中的偶发核活动。还有63个需要更高分辨率的无线电观测或光学识别,以确定它们是否是DDRG。其余来源不太可能是复员方案。我们已经研究了DDRGs的亮度,大小和对称参数,以及这些对我们理解这些来源的限制。

英文摘要:

The radio structures and optical identifications of a sample of 242 sources classified as double-double radio sources by Proctor (2011) from a morphological study of sources in the FIRST (Faint Images of the Radio Sky at Twenty centimeters) survey (2003 April release, 811,117 entries) have been examined. We have been able to confirm only 23 of these as likely to be double-double radio galaxies (DDRGs), whose structures could be attributed to episodic nuclear activity in their host galaxies. A further 63 require either higher-resolution radio observations or optical identifications to determine whether these are DDRGs. The remaining sources are unlikely to be DDRGs. We have examined the luminosities, sizes and symmetry parameters of the DDRGs and the constraints these place on our understanding of these sources.
