X-shaped radio galaxies: probing jet evolution, ambient medium dynamics, and their intricate interconnection

This review explores the field of X-shaped radio galaxies (XRGs), a distinctive subset of winged radio sources that are identified by two pairs of jetted lobes which aligned by a significant angle, resulting in an inversion-symmetric structure. These lobes, encompassing active (primary) and passive...
