Young radio-loud AGN: A new sample at low redshift
2000
We report on the investigation of a complete sample of young radio-loud AGN at z<0.25, selected using the new comprehensive radio surveys and the optical APM/POSS-I catalog. This new sample will provide a unique opportunity for statistical studies of the early evolution of radio-loud AGN, free of cosmological evolution effects. In particular, their local luminosity function, linear-size and dynamical age distributions, may strongly constrain possible evolution scenarios. In addition, this new sample is well suited for statistical studies of other important properties, like their X-ray and infrared emissions, optical cluster environments, and neutral hydrogen in absorption towards the compact radio sources.
