Scientific paper

The angular size-redshift relation is investigated for complete samples of radio galaxies of a constant radio luminosity by combining data on relatively nearby galaxies in strong and intermediate source surveys with distant galaxies in the recent Leiden-Berkeley deep radio and optical survey (Windhorst, 1984). The data are shown to provide strong evidence for linear-size evolution independent of any luminosity-size relationship. It also appears unlikely that the contribution of compact steep-spectrum sources at large redshifts can obviate the need for size evolution.
