Measuring the jet power of flat spectrum radio quasars [PDF]
Stanislav Shabala, Jesse Santoso, Leith GodfreyWe use frequency-dependent position shifts of flat spectrum radio cores to estimate the kinetic power of AGN jets. We find a correlation between the derived jet powers and AGN narrow-line luminosity, consistent with the well-known relation for radio galaxies and steep spectrum quasars. This technique can be applied to intrinsically weak jets even at high redshift.View original: http://arxiv.org/abs/1208.1614
