Displacement

    In my mind ARG0002yeu looks like a displaced radio / IR the two radio countours mimic the two nearby infra-red sources and also on the opposite side two fainter IR sources. Something smells fishy. Were the images correctly aligned? Was there some other unkown mechanism at work?

    Cute! but the mimicry is probably just a coincidence. I went back to the original surveys and everything seems OK. This could either be two #compact sources with #noinfrared or a #double source with the faint IR between them being the ID. However, I think the former is more likely, because the random chance of finding faint IR sources is quite high.
