One radio source or two ones?

by zutopian
This image is unusual IMHO, isn't it? I wonder, if it is one radio source or if there are two radio sources, whose jets maybe overlap?
What kind of radio jet is it? (What kind of radio jets are these?)
Which SDSS object/s is/are the radio source/s? The blue fuzzy galaxy (SDSS ID: 1237665569830470409)?
There is another image of the same radio source/s, namely ARG0000mwq ! Are there further IDs?PS: I posted it in the topic "Suggestions for RGZ Objects to show with detailed FIRST contours overlaid on SDSS images"!

Yes, this does look quite strange. It looks to me like a #bent #one-sided jet.

Not really, second lobe is visible in NVSS so likely a wat or assym triple

Here's a FIRST and NVSS contour overlay image:
Rather asymmetric, wouldn't you say? Also big.
The image in this post was created from sources, and using methods, described in this RGZ Talk post. The object at the center of the image is SDSS J163617.82+491303.3 (ObjId 1237665569830469876)
ETA: I replaced the original 300x300 px SDSS cutout with one that is centered on SDSS J163617.82+491303.3; my thanks to zutopian for pointing out the error.

Thanks for creating the above overlay image!
So there is indeed a 2nd jet, isn't it?Posted

Yes, I would say so.
