Description

The host galaxy of 3C 196.1 is a type-cD elliptical galaxy confirmed by near-infrared and optical imaging. It is described having an elongated structure from northeast and southwest direction{{Cite journal |last1=Madrid |first1=Juan P. |last2=Chiaberge |first2=Marco |last3=Floyd |first3=David |last4=Sparks |first4=William B. |last5=Macchetto |first5=Duccio |last6=Miley |first6=George K. |last7=Axon |first7=David |last8=Capetti |first8=Alessandro |last9=O’Dea |first9=Christopher P. |last10=Baum |first10=Stefi |last11=Perlman |first11=Eric |last12=Quillen |first12=Alice |date=June 2006 |title=Hubble Space Telescope Near-Infrared Snapshot Survey of 3CR Radio Source Counterparts at Low Redshift |journal=The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series |volume=164 |issue=2 |pages=307–333 |doi=10.1086/504480 |arxiv=astro-ph/0603239 |bibcode=2006ApJS..164..307M |issn=0067-0049}}{{Cite journal |last1=Jimenez-Gallardo |first1=A. |last2=Sani |first2=E. |last3=Ricci |first3=F. |last4=Mazzucchelli |first4=C. |last5=Balmaverde |first5=B. |last6=Massaro |first6=F. |last7=Capetti |first7=A. |last8=Forman |first8=W.

According to optical color gradients of the host galaxy, 3C 196.1 exhibits periodic shells with the centroids of the optical isotopes having a directional shift towards southwest, indicating a merger stage.

According to X-ray and radio imaging analysis, 3C 196.1 has a butterfly-shaped X-ray cavity located 10 kpc from its nucleus with the inner and outer cavities having jet power of 1.9 x 1044 erg s−1 and 3.4 x 1044 erg s−1 respectively. The enthalpies of the inner and outer cavities are computed as 7 x 1058 erg and 3 x 1060 erg. Further evidence also shows presence of ionized gas filling up the cavity suggesting either the gas underwent numerous ionization events from AGN outbursts caused by the galaxy or the cooling of AGN outflows (104 < T ≤ 107 K) are causing the gas to form filaments.
