Look up spiral DRAGN in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.
Spiral DRAGNs are a type of galaxy; spiral galaxies which contain DRAGNs (Double Radio-source Associated with Galactic Nucleus), and are therefore also radio galaxies.
Most DRAGNs are associated with elliptical galaxies, as are most double-lobed radio-galaxies.[1] Spiral DRAGNs are inconsistent with currently known galaxy formation processes.[2] As of 2023, there are 17 known spiral DRAGNs that are widely accepted.[3]
Lenticlular galaxies containing DRAGNs are as rare as spiral DRAGNs, with only 5 known examples as of 2020,[4] including: Centaurus A,[5][6] NGC 612[7] and NGC 1534.[4]

SDSS J1649+2635 | 2014 | Fourth known spiral DRAGN; first located in a grand design spiral galaxy. It was discovered by cross-matching spiral galaxies identified by galaxy zoo volunteers with the Unified Radio Catalog. It was the first systematic search for spiral DRAGNs. | [1][13][10][14] |
