Scientific paper

We have identified a powerful double radio source whose host galaxy is clearly a disk system, and probably a spiral. This violates a very general pattern among radio-loud AGN, and understanding this object may thus shed light on the differences among expressions of nuclear activity between spiral and elliptical hosts. We propose a set of images to verify the spiral morphology, seek evidence of a nuclear ionization cone and jet/ISM interactions via narrow-band imaging, and search for optical synchrotron emission from the radio jet. These data would show whether indeed this {already strong} case indeed represents a spiral galaxy producing a powerful double source, what kind of spiral, and how both the nuclear and extended activity compare to those in typical elliptical host systems.
