Search for refractive substructure in active galactic nuclei using ground-based VLBI observations

Tatiana A. Koryukova, Alexander V. Plavin, Alexander B. Pushkarev +1

We present the results of the first systematic search for refractive scattering substructure in active galactic nuclei (AGN) using ground-based very long baseline interferometry (V…

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…

Parsec-scale polarimetry and kinematics of a spine-sheath jet in the neutrino-blazar TXS 0506+056

F. Eppel, P. Benke, C. Degli Agosti +10

In 2017, the blazar TXS 0506+056 showed a remarkable gamma-ray outburst simultaneously with a high-energy neutrino detection by IceCube from the same sky region. The significance o…

A hidden ultra-relativistic spine in the jet of a neutrino-associated blazar

Y. Y. Kovalev, F. Eppel, D. C. Homan +16

Supermassive black holes launch powerful jets of plasma that can accelerate particles to extreme energies, but the physical conditions required to produce high-energy neutrinos rem…

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…

Unique Science Opportunities for Space VLBI Systems with the SKA Telescopes

Y. Y. Kovalev, G. Bruni, T. An +17

To date, two dedicated Space Very Long Baseline Interferometry (SVLBI) missions, the VLBI Space Observatory Programme (VSOP) and RadioAstron, have provided groundbreaking insights…

Revisiting the angular size-redshift cosmological test with milliarcsecond radio structures in active galactic nuclei

Mina Ghodsi Yengejeh, Tatiana A. Koryukova, Leonid I. Gurvits +5

VLBI measurements of the sizes of compact extragalactic radio sources, jetted active galactic nuclei, provide data for probing the angular size--redshift relation, offering a compl…

Gaia Sees Blazars Move: Locating Optical Flares Using Astrometry

Alexander Plavin

When blazars flare, their optical position moves. We show this by combining Gaia DR3 proper motions with epoch photometry for blazars with strong optical jet emission. In 60 of 74…

Locating the missing large-scale emission in the jet of M87* with short EHT baselines

Boris Georgiev, Paul Tiede, Sebastiano D. von Fellenberg +280

In Very-Long Baseline Interferometric arrays, nearly co-located stations probe the largest scales and typically cannot resolve the observed source. In the absence of large-scale st…

Blazars as a Potential Origin of the KM3-230213A Event

The KM3NeT Collaboration

The KM3NeT collaboration has reported the detection of the highest energy neutrino event observed to date. The energy of the event is of the order of 220 PeV hinting towards a neut…

Radio astronomy locates the neutrino origin in bright blazars

A. V. Plavin, Y. Y. Kovalev, Y. A. Kovalev +1

High-energy astrophysical neutrinos have been observed by several telescopes in the last decade, but their sources still remained unknown. We address the problem of locating astrop…
