Relativistic Jets from AGN Viewed at Highest Angular Resolution
Abstract
:1. Introduction
- High-resolution imaging—this allows us to determine the shapes and transverse structures of the innermost jet regions robustly.
- Structural evolution monitoring—this allows us to investigate the kinematics and velocity structures of the innermost jet regions via multi-epoch observations.
- Spatially-resolved polarimetry—this allows us to probe the detailed configuration the B-fields associated with jets through measurements of electric vector polarization angles (EVPA) or Faraday rotation measure (RM).

5. Conclusions and Future Prospects
- Jet launching scales: As demonstrated by the successful BH shadow imaging for M87, regular operation of EHT (230 GHz) and also GMVA (86 GHz) connected to ALMA has opened up a new frontier on AGN jet studies thanks to their extreme angular resolution of ∼50 down to a few for nearby sources. The joint use of the mm-VLBI and conventional cm-VLBI (sensitive to the large-scale emission) would be particularly interesting as a next step. Such high-resolution, multi-frequency analysis will, for the first time, connect jet images from the central engine to further out thoroughly, which will then permit us to specify the initial jet-launching geometry with subsequent collimation, particle energetics via spatially-resolved spectra, seeds of superluminal knots, and B-field strength/configurations in the magnetically-dominated regions.
- Jet ACZ and recollimation shocks: Although Doppler-beamed properties (e.g., -ray emission) are obviously different between radio galaxies and blazars/NLSy1s (i.e., different jet orientations), the accumulated VLBI results are uncovering that a number of jets share common characteristics in terms of (deprojected) geometrical and kinematic properties at innermost scales, i.e., acceleration, collimation, recollimation shocks with structural transitions at the end of ACZ, and possibly also helical B-fields. It is remarkable that these features are commonly seen in all three types of jetted AGN (radio galaxies, blazars and NLSy1s), suggesting that a common jet formation mechanism is at work over a wide area in the domain. However, the dependence of those properties on jet power is still less defined (i.e., FR-I vs FR-II or BL Lac vs FSRQ).
- Radio-TeV connection: Although we have gained a wealth of knowledge about the correlation between radio/VLBI and GeV -rays in AGN jets (especially blazars) thanks to the success of Fermi, the connection between radio and TeV -rays is still not well understood, due to the poorer statistics in TeV bands than in GeV [224]. So far only ∼60 TeV AGN have been known10 despite the continued efforts by the existing TeV -ray facilities, and most of the TeV AGN are biased towards high-frequency peaked BL Lacs (HBL). Only a handful of FSRQ/radio galaxies and no NLSy1s have been detected in TeV. The CTA, a forthcoming -ray facility that enhances both angular resolution and sensitivity in TeV bands, is expected to update the TeV -ray sky dramatically. Coordinated mm-VLBI/cm-VLBI observations with CTA will be the key to robustly constrain the location and origin of the highest energy photons in AGN.
- Multi-layered (spine-sheath) structure: Now, a number of studies propose that an AGN jet is not a simple homogeneous flow but is composed of multiple layers with different velocities or densities, as represented by the spine-sheath scenario (see, e.g., in [225]). However, there is still little direct observational evidence confirming such multi-layered flows. To address this, a key attempt would be to detect both spine and sheath streamlines (with possible distinct spectral/velocity properties) in a spatially-resolved VLBI jet image, as already hinted in recent high sensitivity images of M87 [55,66]. Future ultrahigh dynamic range radio imaging with SKA or ngVLA11 connected to VLBI would greatly enhance the chance to detect such structures in many nearby AGN jets.
- Magnetic-field topology: As mentioned before, a growing number of AGN jets are suggested to possess helical B-fields based on RM analysis, implying that such B-field structures are common to many jets. Nevertheless, this kind of studies may be further updated for a number of aspects. High-frequency VLBI will be able to reveal the B-field structures in the magnetically-dominated regions near BH. For low frequencies probing large-scale B-fields beyond the VLBI core, again future VLBI together with SKA or ngVLA (a factor of 10 or more enhancement in polarimetric sensitivity) will be the key to unveil RM distributions/gradients over the whole jet area, which is crucial to conclude the exact B-field topology.
- Low-luminosity AGN: Here, we only focused on AGN with prominent jets. However, a majority of AGN are radio quiet or even though they are formally radio-loud, the jets are very weak on mas scales (see, e.g., in [226,227]). An extreme example would be the Galactic Center SgrA* (see, e.g., in [228]). To constrain the regulation of jet power and production efficiency in AGN, horizon-scale comparison between powerful/weak-jet AGN would be necessary since GRMHD theories (for RIAF) predict that the magnetic flux threading BH and the BH spin are the key parameters for the jet production efficiency [5], both of which are horizon-scale quantities. Nearby LLAGN such as M81 [229], M84 [230], the Sombrero galaxy [231] may be good potential targets of future horizon-scale weak-jet imaging with EHT. LLAGN jets would also be important for understanding the kinetic feedback in galaxy-AGN coevolution, as they could be less collimated than powerful jets so their large solid angles could efficiently heat the host galaxies [232].
- Multi-messanger view: Blazars have long been considered as potential sources of high-energy neutrinos. Recent multi-messenger observations of a blazar TXS 0506+056 discovered a coincidence of -ray flares with high-energy neutrino IceCube-170922A [233], opening a new era on multi-messenger astronomy on AGN jets. Analysis of contemporaneous radio and VLBI data on this source found a large flux increase from the radio core that might be associated with the neutrino event [234]. Therefore, future dedicated VLBI follow-up of neutrino candidate AGN would help localize the site of high-energy neutrinos in relativistic jets.

8. | It should be noted that a core-shift with could also be reproduced “artificially” by the effect of core–jet blending with limited angular resolution. Such a blending effect would be especially serious for distant jet sources (and in particular at low frequencies where the jet emission is more pronounced and the angular resolution is worse than at high frequencies). |
