Astronomers discover a radio galaxy with evidence of four separate jet outbursts‎

Astronomers have identified what may be the first example of a new class of radio galaxy, one whose central black hole appears to have launched powerful jets on four separate occasions. High-resolution observations with the upgraded Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT), combined with data from MeerKAT and the Very Large Array, reveal four pairs of radio structures arranged symmetrically around the central galaxy.
