Analysis of the nuclear properties of Brightest Cluster Galaxies and comparison with "normal" radio galaxies.

The aim of this PhD thesis is the study of the nuclear properties of radio loud AGN. Multiple and/or recent mergers in the host galaxy and/or the presence of cool core in galaxy clusters can play a role in the formation and evolution of the radio source. Being a unique class of objects (Lin & M...
