Simulated VLA and ngVLA images of a redshifted analog to the radio galaxy 3C28. (a) A Sloan Digital Sky Survey DR12 i-band optical image is shown in the background colorscale, and the multi-configuration (B and C array) VLA C-band (6 GHz) radio contours are overlaid in white. The angular resolution of the radio data is θFWHM = 1.″0, and the extent of the radio lobes from end to end is 45″ (150 kpc). The 3C28 VLA data were originally published in Harwood et al. (2015). (b) Model radio image of 3C28 based on the original data shown in panel a) and shown at the true redshift of the source of z = 0.2. (c) Simulated VLA A-configuration map of a 3C28 analog redshifted to z = 1.0 at 6 GHz with θFWHM = 0.″34. (d) Simulated map of a 3C28 analog at z = 1.0 as it would appear if imaged with the ngVLA at 6 GHz. The angular resolution is θFWHM = 0.″028.
