Optical spectra of the nuclei of radio galaxies with radio jets.
Abstract
Emission-line optical spectra have been measured for several radio galaxies with radio jets, including the giant radio galaxies 3C 236 and NGC 6251. The emission lines in all these objects are relatively weak and correspond to a lower average degree of ionization than in typical narrow-line radio galaxies.
