HST polarization map of the ultraviolet emission from the outer jet in M87 and a comparison with the 2cm radio emission
R. C. Thomson, D. R. T. Robinson, N. R. Tanvir +2
We present the first high resolution polarization map of the ultraviolet emission from the outer jet in M87. The data were obtained by the Faint Object Camera (FOC) on the Hubble S…
