Probing the -ray emission region and the connection to jet ejections in NRAO 150 with VLBI
L. C. Debbrecht, G. F. Paraschos, E. Ros +7
Relativistic jets launched by active galactic nuclei are fundamental for understanding the physics of accreting supermassive black holes and their immediate environments, yet the o…
Decoding the jet of BL Lacertae using relativistic magneto-hydrodynamics
G. F. Paraschos, J. A. Kramer, I. Liodakis +5
Blazars are a highly variable subclass of active galactic nuclei, whose relativistic jet is pointed towards our line of sight at a small angle. Their variability is often character…
Dynamics and geometry of the inner sub-parsec-scale jet in 3C 279 observed with the Event Horizon Telescope
Hendrik Mueller, Sebastiano D. von Fellenberg, Ai-Ling Zeng +275
The 2021 Event Horizon Telescope observations resolve the innermost jet region of the blazar 3C279 with unprecedented detail. The reconstructed images consistently reveal a compact…
Broadband multiwavelength properties of the archetypal blazar 3C 279 during the 2017 Event Horizon Telescope campaign
G. Principe, J. C. Algaba, E. Aviano +529
The archetypal blazar 3C 279 hosts a prominent relativistic jet and exhibits strong broadband variability across the electromagnetic spectrum. In April 2017, the Event Horizon Tele…
Tracking down the broadband polarimetric properties of PG 1553+113
Riccardo Middei, Svetlana G. Jorstad, Alan P. Marscher +78
We report on a nine-month monitoring campaign of the blazar PG 1553+113, relying on three observations carried out in 2025 with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) and su…
Ring Asymmetry and Spin in M87*
Vadim Bernshteyn, Nicholas S. Conroy, Michi Bauböck +263
Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) images of the supermassive black hole M87* depict an asymmetric ring of emission. General relativistic magnetohydrodynamic (GRMHD) models of M87* and…
