Scientific paper

Within the 2 arcmin-radius position error circle of the recently discovered INTEGRAL source IGR J21247+5058 (ATEL #229) is located the core of the bright radio source 4C 50.55 (also known as GPSR 93.319+0.394, KR2, NRAO 659 or BG 2122+50, among other names). The core has a flat radio spectrum with a peak flux density of 237 mJy/beam at 1.4 GHz. It is at the center of an elongated structure of 10 x 3 arcmin that ends in two large radio lobes that have peak flux densities of 288 mJy/beam (NW) and 92 mJy/beam (SE), and spectral indexes alpha~-0.6 (where S_nu is proportional to nu^+alpha), compatible with optically thin synchrotron radiation (see NVSS contour plot).
