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…

Magnetic and thermal acceleration in extragalactic jets: An application to NGC 315

L. Ricci, M. Perucho, J. López-Miralles +2

Aims. Relativistic jets launched from active galactic nuclei accelerate up to highly relativistic velocities within a few parsecs to tens of parsecs. The precise way in which this…

First GMVA observations with the upgraded NOEMA facility: VLBI imaging of BL Lacertae in a flaring state

Dae-Won Kim, Michael Janssen, Thomas P. Krichbaum +5

We analyze a single-epoch Global mm-VLBI Array (GMVA) observation of the blazar BL Lacertae (BL Lac) at 86 GHz from April 2021. The participation of the upgraded, phased Northern E…

A Collection of German Science Interests in the Next Generation Very Large Array

M. Kadler, D. A. Riechers, J. Agarwal +88

The Next Generation Very Large Array (ngVLA) is a planned radio interferometer providing unprecedented sensitivity at wavelengths between 21 cm and 3 mm. Its 263 antenna element ar…
