X-SHAPED RADIO SOURCES -ADVANCES IN INTERPRETATION

摘要

In continuation of the work of Capetti et al. [1], the present work investigates the X-shaped morphologies of extragalactic radio sources and tries to establish the area in parameter space where such morphologies form. The main objective is to verify the new proposed interpretation for the X-shaped structures formation, by 2D numerical simulations. Also, some recent observations of three of the sources in our sample are discussed.
