Jet opening angles and gamma-ray brightness of AGN
A. B. Pushkarev, Y. Y. Kovalev, M. L. Lister +1
We have investigated the differences in apparent opening angles between the parsec-scale jets of the active galactic nuclei (AGN) detected by the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) d…
A closer look at the flaring feature in the M87 jet
C. S. Chang, E. Ros, Y. Y. Kovalev +1
The radio-loud active galactic nucleus in M 87 hosts a powerful jet fueled by a super-massive black hole in its center. A bright feature 80 pc away from the M 87 core has been repo…
MOJAVE: Monitoring of Jets in Active Galactic Nuclei with VLBA Experiments. VI. Kinematics Analysis of a Complete Sample of Blazar Jets
M. L. Lister, M. H. Cohen, D. C. Homan +6
We discuss the jet kinematics of a complete flux-density-limited sample of 135 radio-loud active galactic nuclei (AGN) resulting from a 13 year program to investigate the structure…
Opacity in parsec-scale jets of active galactic nuclei: VLBA study from 1.4 to 15 GHz
Y. Y. Kovalev, A. B. Pushkarev, A. P. Lobanov +1
In extragalactic jets, the apparent position of the bright/narrow end (the core) depends on the observing frequency, owing to synchrotron self-absorption and external absorption. T…
Fermi Discovery of Gamma-Ray Emission from NGC 1275
LAT Collaboration, A. A. Abdo, H. D. Aller +6
We report the discovery of high-energy (E>100 MeV) gamma-ray emission from NGC 1275, a giant elliptical galaxy lying at the center of the Perseus cluster of galaxies, based on obse…
A Connection Between Apparent VLBA Jet Speeds and Initial Active Galactic Nucleus Detections Made by the Fermi Gamma-ray Observatory
M. L. Lister, D. C. Homan, M. Kadler +5
In its first three months of operations, the Fermi Gamma-Ray Observatory has detected approximately one quarter of the radio-flux-limited MOJAVE sample of bright flat-spectrum acti…
