Scientific paper

The dynamics of low-power radio jets are largely determined by interactions with the surrounding X-ray emitting gas. 3-D kinematic models have been constructed using high-resolution radio data for a small number of nearby FRI radio jets, but require good constraints on the external medium over a large range of distances to extract information about jet physical conditions (e.g. total energy flux, density, pressure, mass entrainment rate). A combination of XMM measurements of group-scale X-ray emission with Chandra measurements of the jet inner regions is required to sample all the necessary physical scales, as successfully demonstrated with previous observations. Here we propose to extend this programme to two lower luminosity radio galaxies, B2 1553+24 and B2 0326+39.
