G4Jy. Multiwavelength data and analysis

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

Description

We provide an updated 'multiwavelength' version of the G4Jy catalogue (available at github.com/svw26/G4Jy, zenodo.org/communities/g4jy/records, and through VizieR), which has 127 new host-galaxy identifications, as described in Paper III of this paper series. We also supplement the redshift information (0.0<z<3.6) gathered in Paper III with griz photometry available through DR10 of the DESI Legacy Surveys.

Together, this legacy dataset allows us to investigate the multiwavelength properties of these southern radio-bright galaxies, which includes an initial analysis of radio spectral-curvature for this complete sample (S_151MHz_>4Jy). For example, we present (for the first time in the literature) the radio-power-size diagram as a function of radio spectral-curvature, [P--D](SCI), noting that the spectral-curvature index (SCI) can act as a proxy for the spectral age of the radio source.

This radio-power-size-age diagram shows an interesting predominance of candidate remnant radio-galaxies (SCI>0.15) with D<200 kpc (although these may instead be young radio-sources), and a vast range of linear sizes for candidate restarted radio-galaxies (SCI<-0.15). We also show that (i) G4Jy sources populate the entirety of WISE colour-colour space, (ii) optically point-like sources (i.e. candidate quasars) are brighter than the well-studied K-z relation (as expected), and (iii) there is no relation between the SCI of the radio source and its host-galaxy properties.
