The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: The population of nearby radio galaxies at the 1-mJy level

Abstract:

We use redshift determinations and spectral analysis of galaxies in the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey to study the properties of local radio sources with S ≥ 1 mJy. 557 objects (hereafter called the spectroscopic sample) drawn from the FIRST survey, corresponding to 2.3 per cent of the total radio sample, are found in the 2dFGRS catalogue within the area 9h48m ≲ RA(2000) ≲ 14h32m and -2o.77 ≲ Dec.(2000) ≲ 2o.25, down to a magnitude limit bJ = 19.45. The excellent quality of 2dF spectra allows us...
