Investigation of Radio Structures of High-z QSOs by VLBI Observation
Challenges of 512 Frey et al.: High resolution radio imaging parsec-scale jet component speeds (Fig. 4). More radio luminous sources have faster jets. Both the radios.powers and Fig. 4. 1.4 GHz extended lum jet speeds vary smoothly between the BL Lac and quasar subclasses. Therefore, at least in terms of radio jet AGN jets 1/2/217 circles denote quasars and BL properties, the BL Lacs and quasars do not appear to be distinctly different. galaxies. Core-only sources a INTRODUCTION Relationship to Large-scale Environment As there have been suggestions that the lobe power is affected by jet-environment interactions on kpc-scales, we have defined the ratio of the lobe radio power to the blazar absolute optical magnitude to be a proxy for environmental effects. This ratio is correlated with redshift, as expected (e.g., Best et al., 1999, MNRAS, 33; see Fig. 5). While the sources with FRI powers appear to be at lower redshifts, the FRII and FRI/II sources show a similar distribution, suggesting that environmental differences are not crucial in determining the total radio power in these Big sources (Fig. 6). This ratio does not correlate with jet speeds, suggesting that factors intrinsic to the AGN, or the local parsec-scale enviornment influence the jets speeds, and thereby the Bang extended radio power.

Core-only sources divided on the basis of extended radio luminosity into FRI (=1), FRII (=2), Chandra Observations of MOJAVE blaza Of the MOJAVE blazars with significant extended radio emission, nea in our ~1 ks Chandra observations (Hogan et al., in preparation), indic relativistic bulk motion in producing X-ray emission. As a followup to t were awarded ~7 ks of time on the Chandra telescope for observing 16+13, and 1641+399. The observations for 16+13 took place 1641+399 is scheduled to be observed next month. 16+13 - Preliminary Findings The highly polarized quasar 16+13 lies at a redshift of 2.99 (1" = ~38 kpc radio jet is one-sided, suggesting a highly relativistic jet on kp line of sight (Fig. 6, Left). Its highest parsec-scale jet component spee few high apparent jet speed source in the MOJAVE sample. High-z QSOs are similar structures to Low-z ones.
