Characteristics of Extended Gas Around Radio Galaxies

  • Chapter
Cooling Flows in Clusters and Galaxies

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((ASIC,volume 229))

Abstract

A qualitative description is given of spectral properties, dynamical behaviour and morphology of a selection of mainly southern radio galaxies which have been observed to have extended ionized gas in their vicinity. The question of the significance of this gas in relation to cooling flows is still very much an open one.
