ARG0000b6n, two #triples, one bent and one very extended.

  • ChrisMolloy by ChrisMolloy

    Here's ARG0000b6n, which appears to be a #bent #triple centre, and a very extended #triple to the west of this centre emission. This ARG field is cross referenced in the ARG0000b6n SDSS J113912.22+553957.5 OUTER REGION OF GALAXIES & STARS post.

    The contour overlay image in this post was created from sources, and using methods, described in this RGZ Talk
    thread.     First in red.

    With regards to the centre emission, there is recorded First flux emission in SDSS Dr14 for SDSS J113910.44+554007.9, which is listed as a star. This object appears to have no radio references nor redshift listing.

    Interestingly, there are radio references in Simbad for SDSS J113912.22+553957.5, which has an NED z_sp=0.062300 +/- 0.000133. This galaxy has an ALLWISE reference also, ALLWISE J113912.20+553957.9.

    And here's the First cut-out image of this ARG field, which seems to show more clearly the centre emission as being a #bent #triple.

    The host for the emission to the west, which is very extended, appears to be SDSS J113908.57+553952.1, which has a z_sp=0.061 +/- 0.00001. This galaxy has radio references in NED and an ALLWISE reference, ALLWISE J113908.57+553952.1.

    Finally, considering the extended and bent morphologies of these emissions, these lobes and the possible hosts are in a #cluster environment.

    As always, comments, suggestions, welcome.
