‧강의 초록

Certain fractions of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) show structured relativistic jets, both on small (< milli-pc) and large (> Mpc) spatial scales. Also, jetted SMBHs produce rapidly time-variable high-energy photons and particles such as neutrinos. Theoretical models suggest that mass accretion onto the central supermassive black holes (SMBHs) is the ultimate source powering these phenomena. However, detailed physical mechanisms responsible for determining the physical properties near the black holes, the onset of relativistic jets, and the acceleration and composition of particles in the outflow remain elusive yet. In this talk, I will review the current models of jetted SMBHs, key observational evidence, and several outstanding issues. I will then present our ongoing research, focusing on ultra-high resolution, time-domain, and polarimetric radio observations of various radio-bright and radio-faint AGNs, also combining multi-wavelength/messenger data. Also, I will briefly introduce forthcoming observing facilities such as the eKVN, next-generation EHT, and the Square Kilometer Array (SKA), which can foster further collaborative research.
