Hot spots in extragalactic radio sources : proceedings of a workshop, held at Ringberg Castle, Tegernsee, FRG, february 8-12, 1988

This collection of papers presents a rather complete review of current knowledge of hot spots in some strong extragalactic radio sources. An overview of known results along with new data on radio observations and optical observations is given in the first and second parts of the book. Recent computa...
