    • The evidence for jet-cloud interactions in a sample of high/intermediate-redshift radio galaxies 

      Solorzano-Inarrea, Carmen; Tadhunter, Clive; Axon, David (Blackwell Publishing: Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2001-05)
      We present detailed long-slit spectroscopic observations of a sample of four powerful radio galaxies, with intermediate/high redshifts (0.47 < z < 0.81). The observations cover the rest-wavelength range 2600 °A- 6600 °A, ...
    • The jet and circumnuclear environment of 3C 293 

      Floyd, David; Perlman, Eric; Leahy, J. Patrick; Beswick, Rob; Jackson, Neal; Sparks, William; Axon, David; O’Dea, Christopher (Astrophysical Journal, 2006-03-01)
      We present the new HST near-infrared polarimetry, broad and narrow-band imaging, and MERLIN 4.5GHz Multi-Frequency Synthesis radio imaging of 3C 293, a unique radio galaxy whose host is an obvious merger remnant, in an ...
    • The large scale distribution of warm ionized gas around nearby radio galaxies with jet-cloud interactions 

      Tadhunter, Clive; Villar-Martin, Montse; Morganti, Raffaella; Bland-Hawthorn, Joss; Axon, David (Blackwell Publishing: Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2000-06)
      Deep, narrow-band Halpha observations taken with the TAURUS Tunable Filter (TTF) on the 4.2m WHT telescope are presented for two nearby radio galaxies with strong jet-cloud interactions. Although the brightest emission ...
    • The nature of the optical: Radio correlations for powerful radio galaxies 

      Tadhunter, Clive; Morganti, Raffaella; Robinson, Andrew; Dickson, Robert; Villar-Martin, Montse; Fosbury, Robert (Blackwell Publishing: Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1998-08)
      The nature of the optical–radio correlations for powerful radio galaxies is investigated using spectroscopic observations of a complete sample of southern 2Jy radio sources. In line with previous work, we find that significant ...
    • PKS2250-41 and the role of jet-cloud interactions in powerful radio galaxies (full paper) 

      Villar-Martin, Montse; Tadhunter, Clive; Morganti, Raffaella; Axon, David; Koekemoer, Anton (Blackwell Publishing: Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1999-02)
      We present high resolution, long-slit spectra of the jet-cloud interaction in the powerful southern radio galaxy PKS2250-41.We have resolved the emission lines into two main kinematic components: a broad component (FWHM ...
