The Global Jet Structure of the Archetypical Quasar 3C 273

The Global Jet Structure of the Archetypical Quasar 3C 273

A key question in the formation of the relativistic jets in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) is the collimation process of their energetic plasma flow launched from the central supermassive black hole (SMBH). Recent observations of nearby low-luminosity radio galaxies exhibit a clear picture of parabol...
