The Morphology of Extragalactic Radio Sources of High and Low Luminosity

摘要: … It is of importance to the models of the origin of the radio emission and of the energy supply to understand the relationship between these regions and other parameters of the radio emission such as luminosity, spectral index and shape. In this note we suggest that there is a definite relationship between the relative positions of the high and low brightness regions of radio sources and their luminosity. The 199 sources in the 3CR complete sample (Mackay 1971) have been studied with high resolution using the Cambridge One-Mile telescope. All 199 …
