A MULTIWAVELENGTH STUDY OF THE HIGH SURFACE BRIGHTNESS HOT SPOT IN PKS 1421-490

Long Baseline Array imaging of the z = 0.663 broadline radio galaxy PKS 1421-490 reveals a 400 pc diameter high surface brightness hot spot at a projected distance of ~40 kpc from the active galactic nucleus. The isotropic X-ray luminosity of the hot spot, L 2-10 keV = 3 × 10[superscript 44] ergs s-...
