Panchromatic Views of Large-scale Extragalactic Jets
Highlights of recent observations of extended jets in AGN are presented. Specifically, we discuss new spectral constraints enabled by Spitzer, studies of the highest-redshift (z∼4) radio/X-ray quasar jets, and a new VLBA detection of superluminal motion in the M87 jet associated with a recent dramatic X-ray outburst. Expanding on the title, inverse Compton emission from extended radio lobes is ...
متن کاملRadiative Processes In Extragalactic Large-Scale Jets
About one thousand extragalactic large-scale jets are known, and a few tens of them are confirmed sources of infrared, optical, or X-ray photons. Multiwavelength emission comming directly from these outflows is always non-thermal in origin. This fact constitutes a primary difficulty in extracting unknown parameters of large-scale jets, since the non-thermal featureless continua do not allow to ...
متن کاملMultifrequency Radiation of Extragalactic Large-Scale Jets
Large-scale extragalactic jets, observed to extend from a few to a few hundred kiloparsecs from active galactic nuclei, are now studied over many decades in frequency of electromagnetic spectrum, from radio until (possibly) TeV γ rays. For hundreds of known radio jets, only about 25 are observed at optical frequencies. Most of them are relatively short and faint, with only a few exceptions, lik...
متن کاملVHE γ-rays From Extragalactic Large Scale Jets
We discuss production of very high energy (VHE) γ-rays in large scale extragalactic jets of FR I sources. Based on recent optical and X-ray observations of these objects we evaluate their VHE emission in a framework of one electron population model. We consider possibility for detection of the predicted radiation, which could provide important constraints on the jet structure and some hardly kn...
متن کاملParsec-scale Jets in Extragalactic Radio Sources1
Observations of parsec-scale radio jets associated with active galactic nuclei are reviewed, with a particular emphasis on high-luminosity core-dominated sources where the most detailed information on individual objects exists. Extensive imaging surveys with very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) have made possible a morphologic classification of compact radio sources and systematic studies o...
