Full Polarization Spectra of 3c 279

We report the results of parsec-scale, multi-frequency VLBA observations of the core region of 3C 279 in Stokes I, linear polarization, and circular polarization. These full polarization spectra are modeled by radiative transfer simulations to constrain the magnetic field and particle properties of the parsec-scale jet in 3C 279. We find that the polarization properties of the core region, incl...

Time Variable Faraday Rotation Measures of 3c 273 & 3c 279

Multifrequency polarimetry with the VLBA confirms the previously reported timevarying Faraday rotation measure (RM) in the quasar 3C 279. Variability in the RM and electric vector position angle (EVPA) of the jet component (C4) is seen making it an unreliable absolute EVPA calibrator. 3C 273 is also shown to vary its RM structure on 1.5 year time-scales. Variation in the RM properties of quasar...

Production of the High Energy-momentum Spectra of Quasars 3c 279 and 3c 273 Using the Penrose Mechanism

Theoretical and numerical (Monte Carlo) N-particle computer model simulations show that Penrose Compton scattering (PCS) near the event horizon and Penrose pair production (PPP) at or near the photon orbit, in the ergosphere of a supermassive (M = 10M⊙) rotating black hole, can generate the necessary energy-momentum spectra to explain the origin of the mysterious fluxes of ultrarelativistic ele...

Emission Knots and Polarization Swings of Swinging Jets

Abstract: Knots (emission features in jets of active galactic nuclei) often show non-ballistic dynamics and variable emission/polarization properties. We model these features as emission pattern propagating in a jet that carries a helical magnetic field and is launched along a changing direction. The model can reproduce a wide range of phenomena observed in the motion of knots: non-ballistic mo...
