Scientific paper

The B2 source sample of low luminosity radio galaxies, which is used for the present statistical study of the properties of jets, contains about 100 objects, and has been reobserved at 1.4 GHz using three different configurations of the VLA. Unambiguous evidence is found for the presence of jets in 45 percent of the sources. The fraction of sources with jets decreases with increasing source power; the less powerful radio galaxies are noted to have the more symmetric jets. Jet properties are discussed in terms of the Bicknell (1984, 1985) model.
