Scientific paper

Jets are now detected in up to 70% of a sample of 50 nearby FRII radio galaxies with z < 0.3 taken from the 3CR catalogue, the majority of which have been imaged at 8 GHz with the VLA: this represents a significant increase in detection rates over previous systematic jet searches. The jets in the sample are almost exclusively one-sided, and show a remarkable range of types of structure. Preliminary attempts to relate jet detection rate to parameters such as the total source luminosity have proved unsuccessful, suggesting a strong environmental influence on jet visibility. I discuss further work to be done on this sample of sources, and the relation of our results to other extragalactic objects with jets.
