We present multi-frequency simultaneous VLBI radio observations of the flat spectrum radio quasar 1633+382 (4C~38.41) as part of the interferometric monitoring of gamma-ray bright active galactic nuclei (iMOGABA) program combined with…

Relativistic jets are the most energetic manifestation of the active galactic nucleus (AGN) phenomenon. AGN jets are observed from the radio through gamma-rays and carry copious amounts of matter and energy from the sub-parsec central…

We present results from the Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) multi-frequency (1.6, 4.4, 8.6, 22 GHz), high-sensitivity (~25 microJy beam^-1), sub-parsec scale (<1 pc) observations and Spectral Energy Distributions (SEDs) for a sample of 12…

We present a summary of the observation strategy of TANAMI (Tracking Active Galactic Nuclei with Austral Milliarcsecond Interferometry), a monitoring program to study the parsec-scale structure and dynamics of relativistic jets in active…

We have analyzed the parsec-scale jet kinematics of 447 bright radio-loud AGN, based on 15 GHz VLBA data obtained between 1994 August 31 and 2019 August 4. We present new total intensity and linear polarization maps obtained between 2017…

Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) outflows can regulate host galaxy evolution via AGN feedback. Ionised gas outflows have been linked to enhanced radio emission. In the first paper of this series, AGN detected with the International LOFAR…

With an instantaneous field of view of 2 sr and a duty cycle > 95%, the High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) Gamma-Ray Observatory is a perfect instrument for monitoring variable TeV sources. Because radio galaxies are a type of Active…
