Context. Relativistic jets from Active Galactic Nuclei are observed to be collimated on the parsec scale. When the pressure between the jet and the ambient medium is mismatched, recollimation shocks and rarefaction shocks are formed.…

The Gamma-ray BL Lac object OJ 287 is known to exhibit inner-parsec "jet-wobbling", high degrees of variability at all wavelengths and quasi-stationary features including an apparent (~100 deg) position angle change in projection on the sky…

We consider axisymmetric relativistic jets with a toroidal magnetic field and an ultrarelativistic equation of state, with the goal of studying the lateral structure of jets whose pressure is matched to the pressure of the medium through…
