confusing sources. possible IFRS

  • WizardHowl by WizardHowl

    I marked this as three separate #compact sources, since the outer two radio sources seem to be well-matched to IR sources, whilst the central radio source has no IR counterpart (possible #IFRS ?). It's confusing because the radio image looks like a typical jet. If I'm wrong and it is a jet, then the central source is still too faint (or obscured by dust) to show up in the IR, so would still be an interesting object?

    I think you are absolutely right with your first guess: three separate compact sources and one of them ifrs
