Scientific paper
In this paper, I have analysed the subarcsecond polarization structure of two high-z compact steep-spectrum quasars. Morphology suggests that the jets are interacting strongly with intergalactic medium. Models of bending by ram pressure equilibrium in a cooling flow and alignment of magnetic field lines by jet-intergalactic medium (IGM) shock suggest that the compact steep-spectrum sources (CSS) jets are light, supersonic and mildly relativistic. Particle energy index variations along the jet suggests replenishment triggered by such interactions.
