RadioAstron discovery of a mini-cocoon around the restarted parsec-scale jet in 3C 84

T. Savolainen, G. Giovannini, Y. Y. Kovalev +19

We present RadioAstron space-based very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) observations of the nearby radio galaxy 3C84 (NGC1275) at the centre of the Perseus cluster. The observa…

A wide and collimated radio jet in 3C 84 on the scale of a few hundred gravitational radii

G. Giovannini, T. Savolainen, M. Orienti +22

Understanding the launching, acceleration, and collimation of jets powered by active galactic nuclei remains an outstanding problem in relativistic astrophysics. This is partly bec…

The high brightness temperature of B0529+483 revealed by RadioAstron and implications for interstellar scattering

S. V. Pilipenko, Y. Y. Kovalev, A. S. Andrianov +22

The high brightness temperatures, K, detected in several active galactic nuclei by RadioAstron space VLBI observations challenge theoretical limits. R…

Extreme Brightness Temperatures and Refractive Substructure in 3C273 with RadioAstron

Michael D. Johnson, Yuri Y. Kovalev, Carl R. Gwinn +8

Earth-space interferometry with RadioAstron provides the highest direct angular resolution ever achieved in astronomy at any wavelength. RadioAstron detections of the classic quasa…

The Nuclear Structure of 3C84 with Space VLBI (RadioAstron) Observations

Gabriele Giovannini, Monica Orienti, Tuomas Savolainen +15

The radio galaxy 3C84 is a representative of gamma-ray-bright misaligned active galactic nuclei (AGN) and one of the best laboratories to study the radio properties of subparsec sc…
