Abstract

Description

Very deep 4.9 GHz observations with the VLA are used to supplement available radio maps at the frequencies of 325 MHz (WENSS survey) and 1.4 GHz (NVSS survey) in order to study the synchrotron spectra and radiative ages of relativistic particles in the extended lobes of distant giant radio galaxies selected from the sample of Machalski et al. (2001).
