Outline Low frequency survey The Mauritius Radio Telescope Our sample GMRT observations Preliminary Analysis & Results Conclusion

Low frequency survey utility in identifying classes of objects that can be observed at other wavelengths less affected by optical depth and beaming provides samples with an isotropic source distribution. particular interest for ﬁnding radio galaxies, especially those at large redshifts.

Analytical model of FRII source Q - energy supplied per unit time U - energy density r - distance frome core Assume density IGM = k r - α

The Mauritius Radio Telescope (MRT)‏ T-shaped Fourier synthesis non- coplanar array 2048 m long East-West (EW) arm 880 m long North-South (NS) arm operating at 151.5 Mhz. EW - 1024 ﬁxed helices arranged in 32 groups at the same height but the different groups are at not co-planar.

Spectra of some sources

Results By considering the spectral index a of the sources in the MRC/1Jy-B sample (107 sources), between 1400 MHz and the 408 MHz: 27.3% of the sources show ultra steep spectrum 67.3% show steep spectrum features and remaining, 4.6% were ﬂat spectrum sources.

Morphology 41% - singles or unresolved, 49% - apparent double structures 5% - triple sources 5% - complex structures.
