Abstract

In this contribution we highlight a large programme that is being undertaken to establish the physical links between black-hole mass, host galaxy properties and cluster environments of a sample of radio galaxies spanning ~ 3 dex in radio luminosity at a single cosmic epoch. The sample of 41 radio galaxies is drawn from four complete radio samples and is comprised of all narrow-line radio galaxies in the redshift range 0.4 < z < 0.6. This allows us to delineate the effects of cosmic evolution from genuine radio-power dependent characteristics.
