Discovery of synchrotron emission from a YSO jet
Synchrotron emission at radio wavelengths is commonly found in relativistic jets from active galactic nuclei (AGNs) and microquasars and allows the study of the magnetic field in these kind of jets.

CCD observations of galaxies with radio jets [PDF]
We present preliminary results of a CCD survey of nearby (z<0.1) northern galaxies which have well defined radio jets. Our main objectives are to: 1) detect - or put constraints to - the presence of optical jets in these galaxies, 2) obtain high dynamic range maps of known optical jets, and 3) make a detailed comparison of our results with those ...

CORONAL JETS AS A CAUSE OF MICROWAVE NEGATIVE BURSTS
We have investigated the cause of three “isolated” negative radio bursts recorded one after another at several frequencies in the 1–17 GHz range at the Nobeyama Radio Observatory, Ussuriysk Astrophysical Observatory, and Learmonth Solar Observatory on ...

On the efficiency of jet production in radio galaxies [PDF]
The mechanisms that produce and power relativistic jets are fundamental open questions in black hole (BH) astrophysics. In order to constrain these mechanisms, we analyze the energy efficiency of jet production 'eta' based on archival Chandra observations of 27 nearby, low-luminosity active galactic nuclei. We obtain 'eta' as the ratio of the jet power,

The local radio-loud AGN population is dominated by compact sources named FR0s. These sources show features, for example the host type, the mass of the supermassive black hole (SMBH), and the multi-band nuclear characteristics, that are similar to those ...

Since thermal radio jets can be observed with subarsecond angular resolution and are unaffected by dust absorption, they provide a useful tool to study collimated outflows very close to the young stars that produce them. Here, I review recent results on this area, giving emphasis to the study of thermal jets in the case of the quadrupolar outflows in ...

Interaction of jets with the ISM of radio galaxies [PDF]
We present three dimensional simulations of the interaction of a light hypersonic jet with an inhomogeneous thermal and turbulently supported disk in an elliptical galaxy, including Radio and multi-band X-ray visualisations. These simulations are applicable to the GPS/CSS phase of some extragalactic radio sources. We identify four generic phases in the

Relativistic jets of active galactic nuclei have been known to exist for 100 years. Blazars with their jet pointing close to our line of sight are some of the most variable and extreme objects in the universe, showing emission from radio to very-high ...

A Panchromatic View of Relativistic Jets in Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 Galaxies
The discovery by the Large Area Telescope on board Fermi of variable γ-ray emission from radio-loud narrow-line Seyfert 1 (NLSy1) galaxies revealed the presence of a possible third class of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) with relativistic jets in addition ...

The discovery of 3C 273 in 1963, and the emergence of the Kerr solution shortly thereafter, precipitated the current era in astrophysics focused on using black holes to explain active galactic nuclei (AGN).
