We present very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) images of the core emission from a nearby bright FR II radio galaxy, Pictor A, revealing its parsec-scale jet structure and evolution for the first time.
We present high-resolution VLBI radio images of the closest classical radio galaxy, Centaurus A, including the highest resolution image yet for this source.
A sub-parsec scale radio counterjet has been detected in the nucleus of the closest radio galaxy, Centarus A (NGC 5128), with VLBI imaging at 2.3 and 8.4 GHz.
Measurements of the properties of gravitational lenses have the power to tell us what sort of universe we live in. The brightest known radio Einstein ring/gravitational lens PKS 1830-211, whilst obscured by our galaxy at optical wavelengths, has recently provided a lensing galaxy redshift of 0.89 through the detection of a new absorption feature, most likely due to neutral hydrogen in a second redshift system at z=0.19.
