A Chandra Snapshot Survey for 3C Radio Galaxies with redshifts between
  0.3 and 0.5
  This paper contains an analysis of short Chandra observations of 19 3C
sources with redshifts between 0.3 and 0.5 not previously observed in the
X-rays. This sample is part of a project to obtain Chandra data for all of the
extragalactic sources in the 3C catalogue. Nuclear X-ray intensities as well as
any X-ray emission associated with radio jet knots, hotspots or lobes have been
measured in 3 energy bands: soft, medium and hard. Standard X-ray spectral
analysis for the 4 brightest nuclei has been also performed. X-ray emission was
detected for all the nuclei of the radio sources in the current sample with the
exception of 3C 435A. There is one compact steep spectrum (CSS) source while
all the others are FRII radio galaxies. X-ray emission from two galaxy clusters
(3C 19 and 3C 320); from 6 hotspots in 4 radio galaxies (3C 16, 3C 19, 3C
268.2, 3C 313); and extended X-ray emission on kpc scales in 3C 187 and 3C 313,
has been detected.
