Abstract

We discuss obbservations and numerical simulations which show that radiative shocks in jet-cloud collisions can trigger the collapse of intergalactic clouds and subsequent star formation in low luminosity, ‘FR-I’ type, radio galaxies.To search for other articles by the author(s) go to: http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abstract_service.html
