Multiple simultaneous Gamma-ray emission sites in 3C 84

Abstract

The mis-aligned active galactic nuclei (AGN), 3C\,84, has been observed approximately monthly at four frequencies simultaneously (22\,GHz -- 129\,GHz) on the Korean VLBI Network (KVN) since 2013 as part of the interferometric monitoring of $\gamma$-ray bright AGN (iMOGABA) program. 3C\,84 is known to have to sites of bright radio emission, with the first thought to be near the central super-massive black hole and the second in a slowly moving emission feature, several milliarcseconds south of the core. Analysis of this data suggests that the highly variable Gamma-ray emission originates near the SMBH and the slowly rising $\gamma$-ray emission originates in the slow moving feature.
