Notes
The FRI radio source PKS 0427−53 is hosted by the eastern component of a dumbbell galaxy system (Carter et al. 1989). It presents an interesting radio structure, with a long tongue of emission seen extending westward from the western lobe in the 843-Mhz Molongo images (Jones & McAdam 1992). Our ATCA image shows only the inner lobes and a distinct core (Morganti et al. 1993). The extended emission in this image is not reliably represented.
The optical spectrum reveals no emission lines and the continuum appears typical of early-type galaxies (Tadhunter et al. 1993, Wills et al. 2004).
