| dc.description.abstract | We present near ultraviolet imaging with the Hubble Space Telescope Advanced Camera for Surveys, targeting
young radio galaxies (Gigahertz Peaked Spectrum and Compact Steep Spectrum sources), in search of star
formation regions in their hosts. We find near UV light which could be the product of recent star formation in
eight of the nine observed sources. However, observations at other wavelengths and colors are needed to definitively establish the nature of the observed UV light. In the CSS sources 1443+77 and 1814–637 the near UV light is
aligned with and is co-spatial with the radio source, and we suggest that in these sources the UV light is produced by star formation triggered and/or enhanced by the radio source. | en_US |
| dc.description.sponsorship | We have obtained HST/ACS near-UV high resolution images of young radio sources: GPS and CSS galaxies. We detect near UV emission (point sources and/or clumps) in eight of the sources, consistent with the presence of recent star formation. In two CSS sources, 1443+77 and 1814–637 the near UV emission is aligned with and co-spatial with the the radio emission and we suggest that star formation has been triggered/enhanced by expansion
of the radio source through the host. Observations at other wavelengths and measurement of the colors are needed to further asses the nature of the observed UV properties. | en_US |
