Radio structure and optical identification of 3C319
Maps of 3C319 made with the VLA at 1.48 and 4.89 GHz show the source to have an elongated double structure and a distribution of radio spectral index which support identification of the entire structure with an 18/sup m/.5 elliptical galaxy located near its radio centroid. A bright radio ''head'' at the northeastern end of the source is resolved by our 1.3 arcsec beam at 4.89 GHz and the position of its radio peak is approx.0.7 arcsec from a approx.20/sup m/ diffuse optical object. This object may be a galaxy that is unrelated to 3C319, or it may be optical emission from the northeastern radio lobe.
