The core shift measurements for two-sided jets affected by Free-Free absorption using VLBA

A radio core represents the peak of intensity in VLBI images and is located at the base of jets. It appears at different positions depending on frequencies. This is known as “core shift”, caused by absorption of the core emission. The position of the central engine in an AGN can be estimated accurat...
