Details on Acronym:   BGLO
  
BGLO (Blanco+Graham+Lasker+Osmer)
Write:<<BGLO Cen A Knot A>>
<<BGLO Cen A Knot AN>>
<<BGLO Cen A Knot ANa>>
<<BGLO Cen A Knot AN/N>>
<<BGLO Cen A Knot AA>>
N: 7+11+6
Object:Knot  (SIMBAD class: PartofG = Part of a Galaxy)
Stat:is completely incorporated in Simbad
Note:Study of optical filaments and knots in the radio-jet of NGC 5128 = Cen A.
Radio, X-ray, and optical knots and overall structure of the jet are in good positional agreement.
Knot A is divided into 4 sub-components (Nos A1-A4).
Knot A1 is divided into 3 sub-knots (Nos A1a-A1c).
A new knot is found between knots A2 and A3, named 'A2/3' by the authors.
A X-ray knot is found with no distinct radio counterpart, named 'AX' by the authors. See also [KFJ2002]
