摘要
The radio source 3C 265, located at z = 0.811, is one of the most luminous radio galaxies in the 3CR catalogue. Indirect evidence for the presence of a powerful quasar in the nucleus of 3C 265 was provided by optical, infrared, and radio studies. We present preliminary results from new Chandra X-ray observations of the radio galaxy 3C 265, allowing us to test the presence of such a powerful quasar, and at the same time to study the effect of the intense nuclear flux on the relativistic electron population in the radio lobes of 3C 265.
