Peering into the heart of 3CR radio galaxies. A very long baseline interferometry perspective on optical-radio classifications at parsec scales
P. Grandi, G. Giovannini, E. Torresi +1
Historically, luminous edge-brightened Fanaroff-Riley type II (FRII) radio galaxies have been associated with radiatively efficient cold accretion disks. In contrast, faint edge-da…

Jet formation studies in AGN: a search for new targets
B. Boccardi, L. Ricci, E. Madika +6
In recent years, the jet formation region in active galaxies has been imaged through mm-VLBI in few ideal targets, first and foremost M87. An important leap forward for understandi…

Spectral and magnetic properties of the jet base in NGC 315
L. Ricci, B. Boccardi, J. Roeder +7
The dynamic of relativistic jets in the inner parsec regions is deeply affected by the nature of the magnetic fields. The level of magnetization of the plasma, as well as the geome…
