... The results of long-term monitoring of Gigahertz-Peaked Spectrum sources were found the statistically significant differences (0.05 significance level) in the high-frequency spectral index distribution between subgroups of galaxies and quasars. ... This can mean that the electron energy distribution for GPS galaxies is steeper than for GPS quasars. ... The first area corresponds to GPS-quasars that have statistically larger value of redfhift, second area corresponds to GPS-galaxies. ...
