NED object is NGC 7728; Reference is 1982MNRAS.200..705J
Figure 1. Brightness distributions of nearby radio galaxies at 1.4GHz. Maps
at 1.4 GHz are from the One-Mile telescope and are of Stoke's parameters I +
Q. The zero contour level is suppressed on the maps and negative contours are
dashed. Unless otherwise noted, the contour interval is 5 mJy for One-Mile
maps. Details are given of any unusual map processing. A cross marks the
position of the associated galaxy's nucleus, as given by Dressel & Condon
(1976). The formal accuracy of these positions is +/- 4 arcsec. Map
coordinates are for epoch 1950.0. The L-shape in the map corner gives the FWHM
of the beam in right ascension and declination. The FWHM in right ascension of
the beam is 23 arcsec at 1.4 GHz at full resolution, and is larger in
declination by a factor cosec {delta}. NGC 7728. Several interfering sources
(including 3C 465) have bean removed from the 1.4-GHz map, but there is still
some residual north-south structure at a low level which represents the
remaining grating responses. The contour interval is 5 mJy per beam area and
then (at the peak) 20 mJy. The 5.0-GHz map has been phase referenced and the
contour interval is 4 mJy. (Note that the right ascension scale is 1 s per
division.)
