Scientific paper

The dynamics of low-power radio jets are largely determined by interactions with the surrounding X-ray emitting gas. Our previous Chandra and XMM-Newton observations of radio-galaxy environments have demonstrated the importance of X-ray observations in constraining the physical conditions and dynamics of radio galaxies on small and large scales. Here we propose to observe two of the best-studied FRI radio galaxies, for which we have high-resolution radio data and three-dimensional kinematic models, with the aim of measuring density and pressure in the X-ray emitting environment so as to constrain the jet models, to allow physical properties of the jets to be determined, and to investigate large-scale jet/environment interactions.
