No infrared for some radio sources here

    How intense does the infrared area have to be for it to be identified with a radio contour? I am unsure whether source 2 in this image should actually be identified with the IR areas near it.

    Hi @stargazerqa,

    If you're confident that the IR source is at least 3 times brighter than the background IR noise level in the rest of the image then I'd say that you have a good chance that it's real.

    Does this help?

    To the NW, a #doublelobe, host merger z_ph 0.67 SDSS J075733.96+092128.5.

    At the center, something like a #corejet + #lobe, with host white STAR SDSS J075737.61+092054.0 (NED says z_ph 1.325, so it's probably a QSO)?

    But what's the source of the # compact feature to the SE? Is it, perhaps, an isolated #lobe of the central source?

    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 J075737.61+092054.0
