AbstractAbstract
[en] We report the last observational paper of hot spots for 20 Fanaroff-Riley class II (FR II) sources. These sources are part of a large sample of 98 FR II to study the unification scheme of FR II radio galaxies (RGs) and quasars (QSRs) using the hotspots (HSs) location and morphology. High-resolution VLA observations at 8.4 GHz were conducted for the whole sample. The investigation of HSs properties in FR II radio sources is essential for a better understanding of the dynamics related to the objects and their impact on the surrounding environment. HSs were classified into edged and recessed types, where the former is located at a radio lobe’s outer edge, and the latter is embedded within the lobe. The present sub-sample contains 12 RGs and 8 QSRs. Radio contour maps for each source were presented using the VLA in its A and B configurations. In total, we have identified 18 HSs for these 20 radio sources. The 12 RGs possess 8 edged HSs and 2 recessed HSs. The 8 QSRs possess 6 edged HSs and 2 recessed HSs. Out of the 14 edged HSs, RGs and QSRs possess and , respectively. A thorough morphological discussion of the 20 sources with their HSs is presented in the present work.
