描述 | The existence of jets emanating from the central sources ofradio galaxiesand quasars was perhaps the most importantdiscovery for our understandingof the nature of activegalactic nuclei. These proceedings present reviewsandresearch papers on extragalactic radio sources. The bookbegins witha discussion of the phenomenology and models ofradio sources. The main partis devoted to detailed studiesof jets by VLBI, to the information obtained about thestructure of the central source as deduced from variabilitystudies, to production, confinement and velocity of jetsaswell as to numerical simulations of the jet phenomenon.Reviews of the two best studied jets - those in the radiogalaxy M87 and the quasar3C273 - illustrate our currentobservational picture of extragalactic radio jets in allaccessible wavelength ranges. A section on the influenceofthe environment on radio galaxies concludes the book. Thistopical volume addresses researchers and graduate studentsin astrophysics. |
