    PKS0347+05: a radio-loud/radio-quiet double AGN system triggered in a major galaxy merger
    C. Tadhunter, C. Ramos Almeida, R. Morganti, J. Holt, M. Rose, D. Dicken, K. Inskip

    We present optical, infrared and radio observations of the powerful FRII radio source PKS0347+05 (z=0.3390), and demonstrate that it is a rare example of a radio-loud/radio-quiet double AGN system, comprising a weak line radio galaxy (WLRG) separated by 25 kpc (in projection) from a Seyfert 1 nucleus at the same redshift.

    The SE lobe is indeed complex; is there an unrelated radio source lurking in it? A zoomed-in overlay, centered on that lobe, later!

    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 J153143.46+240419.1

    Not sure this helps much; two versions, with different contour spacings:

    Here's the apparent host, a STAR:

    Per NED, an x-ray source (CXO J153150.6+240243) is just ~3" away, here (I've no idea what the error bars would be):

    Perhaps this is a distant, very radio-bright source, viewed almost 'end-on', which just coincidentally happens to be close to the line of sight of a boring M star? And the fact that it's invisible in both IR and optical would make it an incredible #ifrs, no?

    What do you think?
