A complete sample of low polarization CSO/MSO

The selection of a complete sample of Compact Symmetric Objects (CSOs) is in progress. The sample of candidates has been obtained on the basis of the low fractional polarization of the CSOs. About 60 % of the candidates has been identified as CSO/MSO, and observations are in progress to determine th...

Description
Summary:	The selection of a complete sample of Compact Symmetric Objects (CSOs) is in progress. The sample of candidates has been obtained on the basis of the low fractional polarization of the CSOs. About 60 % of the candidates has been identified as CSO/MSO, and observations are in progress to determine the radio morphology of the sources with unknown structure (© 2009 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
