ARG0003m89, doublelobe, hosts?

  • ChrisMolloy by ChrisMolloy

    Here's ARG0003m89, which appears to be a #doublelobe. The contour overlay below is centred on SDSS J150332.64+031848.0, which is SW of the ARG co-ordinates listed left.

    The contour overlay image in this post was created from sources, and using methods, described in this RGZ Talk
    thread.
    First in red, Wise band 1 lime green.

    A possible host for the emission could be SDSS J150332.64+031848.0, which is listed as a star in SDSS DR14. This object has radio references in NED, and an ALLWISE reference, ALLWISE J150332.63+031848.7.

    Another possible host could be SDSS J150333.79+031904.4, which again is listed as a star. This object has a radio reference in NED, and recorded First Flux emission in SDSS DR14. If this is the host of the emission, and if these lobes are a #doublelobe, then it could be a #one-sided #doublelobe

    As always, comments, suggestions, welcome.

    Another great overlay, another mystery! 😃

    There are quite a lot of these, aren't there; FIRST sources in ARG fields for which even the radio morphology is uncertain, let alone the host(s). As always, deeper and higher resolution radio observations will help; perhaps from the SKA?
