Abstract

We report results from our deep Chandra X-ray observations of a nearby radio galaxy, 4C+29.30 (z = 0.0647). The Chandra image resolves structures on sub-arcsec to arcsec scales, revealing complex X-ray morphology and detecting the main radio features: the nucleus, a jet, hotspots, and lobes. The nucleus is absorbed (N H ≃ 3.95+0.27 -0.33 × 1023cm-2) with an unabsorbed luminosity of L 2-10 keV ≃ (5.08 ± 0.52) × 1043ergs -1 characteristic of Type 2 active galactic nuclei. Regions of soft (
