Extragalactic radio source evolution under the dual-population unification scheme | | C A Jackson & J V Wall
; | | Date: |
7 Aug 1998 | | Subject: | astro-ph | | Abstract: | We show that a dual-population unification scheme provides a successful paradigm with which to describe the evolution and beaming of all bright extragalactic radio sources. The paradigm consists of two intrinsic radio-source populations, based on the two distinct radio-galaxy morphologies of Fanaroff-Riley classes I and II. These represent the `unbeamed’ or `side-on’ parent populations of steep radio spectra; the `beamed’ source types including flat-spectrum quasars and BL Lac objects, arise through the random alignment of their radio-axis to our line-of-sight where Doppler-beaming of the relativistic radio jets produces highly anisotropic radio emission. | | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/9808054 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
