Compact jets as probes for sub-parsec scale regions in AGN
Andrei Lobanov
TL;DR
This paper reviews how compact relativistic jets in active galactic nuclei serve as probes to study the physics of sub-parsec scale regions near supermassive black holes, linking jet properties to nuclear activity.
Contribution
It provides a comprehensive review of recent observational results on nuclear regions of active galaxies with prominent jets, highlighting their role in understanding AGN physics.
Findings
Jets reveal details of black hole accretion processes
Jet dynamics correlate with nuclear activity levels
Recent observations improve understanding of AGN central regions
Abstract
Compact relativistic jets in active galactic nuclei offer an effective tool for investigating the physics of nuclear regions in galaxies. The emission properties, dynamics, and evolution of jets in AGN are closely connected to the characteristics of the central supermassive black hole, accretion disk and broad-line region in active galaxies. Recent results from studies of the nuclear regions in several active galaxies with prominent outflows are reviewed in this contribution.
