Abstract: Presentation d'observations CCD optiques et radio a synthese d'ouverture de la galaxie a noyau double Mkn 266 (NGC 5256). Cette radiogalaxie est en fait constituee de 3 sources continuum non thermique. On suppose que l'emission synchrotron est stimulee par la collision de deux galaxies dont les disques entrent en coalescence
