3C 33

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

3C 33 is a radio galaxy , more precisely a narrow-line radio galaxy (NLRG), with a redshift of z = 0.0597. The galaxy has two lobes with hotspots (Fanaroff-Riley type II). Using 3C 33, Meisenheimer and Röser were able to support the association of the hotspots with their radio galaxies through direct observations for the first time in 1986.
