Show moreThe thesis deals with the study of giant radio galaxies (GRGs), which are radio galaxies of megaparsec sizes. Their enormous size and rarity have been investigated in this thesis. The study included searching and consequent finding of the largest samples of GRGs and thereby enabling to study of their properties in detail. Also, the properties were compared to smaller sized radio galaxies to investigate possible differences which could be the factor for their giant sizes. Show less
