Recent radio images of the BL Lac object ON231 (W Com, 1219+285) show remarkable new features in the source structure compared to those previously published. The images were obtained from observations made with the European VLBI Network…
Optical light curves of bright BL Lac objects, in particular those having the SED synchrotron peak at frequencies lower than 10E14 Hz, are characterized by long-term trends with time scales of a few decades. These variations are probabily…
EVN and MERLIN observations at 18 cm are presented for 18 Compact Steep--spectrum radio Sources (CSSs) from the B3-VLA CSS sample. These sources were marginally resolved in previous VLA A-configuration observations at 4.9 and 8.4 GHz or had…
We present the results of EVN and MERLIN 5 GHz observations of nine ultra-high-energy synchrotron peak BL Lacs (UHBLs) selected as all BL Lacs with \textbf{log ($\nu_{\rm peak}/ \rm Hz)>20$} from Nieppola et al.. The radio structure was…
We present images of NRAO530 observed with the EVN (VLBI) at 5 GHz, the MERLIN at 1 .6 and 5 GHz, and the VLA at 5 and 8 GHz showing the complex morphology on scales from pc to kpc. The VLBI image shows a core-jet structure indicating a…
We report on the 1.6 GHz (18 cm) VLBI observations of the unresolved, steady TeV source HESS J1943+213 located in the Galactic plane, performed with the European VLBI Network (EVN) in 2014. Our new observations with a nearly full EVN array…
We have observed 28 sources selected from the 1Jy sample of BL Lac objects (Stickel et al. 1991) with the Very Large Array (VLA) in A, B and D configurations at 1.36, 1.66 and 4.85 GHz, and/or with the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope…
We present a radio/optical study of a sample of BL Lac objects at arcsecond and milliarcsecond resolution. The sample consists of 30 nearby (z<0.2) BL Lacs, mostly X-ray selected. These nearby objects are weak in the radio, yet we have…
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…
We present a new sample of 30 nearby (z<0.2) BL Lacs, selected to study the nuclear as well as the large scale properties of low power radio sources. In this first paper, we show and discuss new radio data taken with the VLA (19 objects at…
We present new radio observations of 9 members of a sample of 29 nearby (z < 0.2) BL Lac objects. The new data have been obtained with the European VLBI Network and/or the MERLIN at 1.6 and 5 GHz and complement previous observations. For…
We investigate the properties of the three BL Lac objects, PKS 2201+044, 3C 371 and PKS 0521-365, that exhibit prominent optical jets. We present high resolution near-IR images of the jet of the first two, obtained with an innovative…
High-resolution millimeter wave very-long-baseline interferometry (mm-VLBI) is an ideal tool for probing the structure at the base of extragalactic jets in detail. The TeV blazar Mrk 501 is one of the best targets among BL Lac objects for…
We used 15 GHz multi-epoch Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) polarization sensitive observations of 484 sources within a time interval 1996--2016 from the MOJAVE program, and also from the NRAO data archive. We have analyzed the linear…
Global VLBI observations at 5 GHz have been performed to study the source morphology in 10 compact steep-spectrum (CSS) sources selected from the Peacock & Wall catalogue with the aim of finding asymmetric structures produced by the…
BL Lac objects are known to have very energetic jets pointing towards the observer under small viewing angles. Many of these show high luminosity over the whole energy range up to TeV, mostly classified as high-energy peaked BL Lac objects.…
We report first results from KVN and VERA Array (KaVA) VLBI observations obtained in the frame of our Plasma-physics of Active Galactic Nuclei (PAGaN) project. We observed eight selected AGN at 22 and 43 GHz in single polarization (LCP)…
We present multi-epoch 8.4 and 43 GHz Very Long Baseline Array images of the BL Lac object 0735+178. The images confirm the presence of a twisted jet with two sharp apparent bends of 90$^{\circ}$ within two milliarcseconds of the core,…
BL Lac objects are known to have compact jets inclined to our line of sight at a small angle, showing prominent radio emission. Two radio-weak BL Lac candidates with no counterparts in current radio surveys were recently reported by Massaro…
We interpret the linear polarization structures observed in extragalactic radio sources, even those oriented at oblique angles to the jet flows, to be due to oblique, relativistic shock fronts in the emitting regions. Many sources exhibit…
