Description

The advent of new all-sky radio surveys such as VLASS, RACS, and LoTSS, performed with the latest generation radio telescopes, is opening new possibilities on the classification and study of extragalactic gamma-ray sources, specially the underrepresented ones like radio galaxies. I will discuss the recent discovery of new gamma-ray radio galaxies from the 4th Fermi/LAT catalogues, among which a FRII with hints of GeV emission from its lobes. Their classification, only possible thanks to new generation radio surveys, unveils an emerging population of radio galaxies in the gamma-ray sky, that could be studied in the next decade with SKA and ngVLA.
