Oblique Polarization Structures in AGN and QSO Radio Jets
Abstract. 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 indications of such oblique structures, and the goal of this investigation is to test this hypothesis quantitatively. A selected group of ten highly...
متن کاملStagnation Knots in Precessing Jets
The problem of the formation of a stagnation knot in the head of a precessing stellar jet is investigated from both an analytical and numerical point of view. This dense structure is formed via a similar method to that proposed by Steffen (these proceedings) for the formation of FLIERS in planetary nebulae. Initial results suggest that the formation of a stagnation knot is possibly an intrinsic...
متن کاملGCRT J1745-3009: A precessing radio pulsar?
A unique transient bursting radio source, GCRT J1745-3009, has been discovered (Hyman et al. 2005a) near the direction of the Galactic center. It is still an open question to explain this phenomenon, although some efforts to understand its nature have been made. This paper shows that most of the observed features can be reproduced by our proposed precessing pulsar model. It is found that the pr...
متن کاملPrecessing Jets and Molecular Outflows: A 3-D Numerical Study
– 2 – We present 3-D numerical hydrodynamical simulations of precessing supersonic heavy jets to explore their evolution, how they differ from straight jets and how well they serve as a model for generating molecular outflows from Young Stellar Objects. The dynamics are studied with a number of high resolution simulations on a Cartesian grid (128x128x128 zones) using a high order finite differe...
متن کامل4c +12.50: a Superluminal Precessing Jet in the Recent Merger System Iras 13451+1232
We present the results of a multi-epoch VLBA study of the powerful radio source 4C +12.50 (PKS 1345+125) at a wavelength of 2 cm. This compact radio source is associated with a hidden quasar whose host galaxy shows signs of a recent merger. It has been classified as a compact symmetric source (CSO) due to its small overall size (∼ 220 pc) and twin-jet morphology, although it also has faint exte...
