Equipartition in the hot-spots of 3C 123

Chandra X-ray Observatory observations of the powerful, peculiar radio galaxy 3C 123 have resulted in an X-ray detection of the bright eastern hot-spot, with a 1-keV flux density of similar to 5 nJy. The X-ray flux and spectrum of the hot-spot axe consistent with the X-rays being inverse-Compton emi...
