We present Chandra X-ray (0.2-8 keV) and Very Large Array radio (15 and 5 GHz) images of the $\gamma$-ray bright, superluminal quasar 0827+243. The X-ray jet bends sharply--by ~90 deg., presumably amplified by projection effects--5'' from…
BL Lac objects are low--power active nuclei exhibiting a variety of peculiar properties that are caused by the presence of a relativistic jet and orientation effects. We present here adaptive optics near-IR images at high spatial resolution…
A jet from the low-mass YSO CB230-A had been discovered in NIR narrow-band images. We aim to investigate the physical properties of the region from where the jet is launched. Our analysis was carried out using low-resolution NIR spectra…
The mechanism and the region of generation of variable continuum emission are poorly understood for radio-loud AGN because of a complexity of the nuclear region. High-resolution radio VLBI (very long baseline interferometry) observations…
The origin of X-ray emission from the resolved kiloparsec-scale jets and hotspots of many active galactic nuclei (AGN) remains uncertain, particularly where the X-ray emission is separate from the radio-optical synchrotron component.…
We present measurements of proper motion of the sub-parsec scale jet at 22 GHz in the nearby FR I galaxy 3C 66B. Observations were made using the VLBA at six epochs over four years. A phase-referencing technique was used to improve the…
We present observational evidence for the link between variability of the radio emission of the relativistic jet and optical continuum emission in the radio galaxy 3C 390.3 which indicates that the source of variable non-thermal continuum…
Analysis of Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope low frequency data for an X-shaped source, 3C 223.1 has revealed an unusual result. The radio morphologies of it at 240 and 610 MHz show well defined X-shape with a pair of active jets along the…
We present multi-frequency VLBA+VLA observations of SS433 at 1.6, 5 and 15 GHz. These observations provide the highest angular resolution radio spectral index maps ever made for this object. Motion of the components of SS433 during the…
We present that the model of inverse Compton scattering of cosmic microwave background photons (IC/CMB) could well explain the large-scale jet X-ray radiation of 3C 273, and does not violate new Fermi observations. For the individual knots,…
We present results based on the first 20 Chandra images obtained in a survey of jets in radio selected flat-spectrum quasars (FSRQs), along with new sub-arcsecond radio maps and optical images. We discover jet X-ray flux in 12 sources…
New images from the Hubble Space Telescope of the FRII radio galaxy Pictor A reveal a number of jet knot candidates which coincide with previously detected radio and x-ray knots. Previous observations in x-ray and radio bands show the…
We report X-ray imaging - spectroscopy of the jet of M87 at sub arc second resolution with the Chandra X-ray Observatory. The galaxy nucleus and all the knots seen at radio and optical wavelengths, as far from the nucleus as knot C, are…
In this paper, analytical arguments are presented that there exists a synchrotron X-ray jet on large scales in most radio-loud AGNs, based on the knowledge of the nature and physics of blazars. In blue blazars and blue-blazar-like radio…
We consider the emission processes in the large-scale jets of powerful quasars based on the results obtained with the VLA, Spitzer, Hubble, and Chandra. We show that two well-known jets, 3C 273 and PKS 1136-135, have two distinct spectral…
We present results from four recent Chandra monitoring observations of the jet in 3C 273 using the ACIS detector, obtained between November 2003 and July 2004. We find that the X-ray emission comes in two components: unresolved knots that…
We present far-ultraviolet (UV) observations at 150 nm of the jet of the quasar 3C 273 obtained with the Advanced Camera for Survey's Solar Blind Channel (ACS/SBC) on board the Hubble Space Telescope. While the jet morphology is very…
The archetypical, nearby (z=0.37) quasar 3C 48 is an unusual CSS radio source with excess far-IR emission, whose one-sided radio jet is aligned with the extended ionized emission and a putative second nucleus. Because of its high AGN…
In previous papers we have discussed high-resolution observations of a large sample of powerful radio galaxies with z<0.3. Jets are detected in up to 80 per cent of the sample, and radio cores in nearly all the objects; in addition, we are…
Due to its brightness and proximity, the radio galaxy 3C 84 (optical counterpart NGC 1275 in the Perseus cluster) has been the target of extensive studies investigating the central parsec region of its active galactic nucleus. In 2003, its…
