Optically Thick Jet Base and Explanation of Edge Brightening in Active Galactic Nucleus Jets
The jet cores in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) are resolved and found to harbor an edge-brightened structure where the jet base appears extended at the sides compared to its propagation axis. This peculiar phenomenon invites various explanations. We show that the photosphere of an optically thick je...
