3c273-multi.jpg ‎(484 × 395 pixels, file size: 224 KB, MIME type: image/jpeg)

This three-panel image shows the jet blasting out of the core of quasar 3c273. The scale on all three images is the same (about 10 arcseconds from one of the jet to the another.) This comparative display demonstrates the different intensities discovered in various regimes of the electromagnetic spectrum in this jet. From left to right, the images are optical (HST), X-ray (Chandra), and radio (MERLIN).

Image title	Chandra's image of 3C273 shows important new details in the extremely powerful jet that probably originates from gas that is falling toward a supermassive black hole but is then redirected by strong electromagnetic fields. This Chandra image has enabled scientists, for the first time, to detect a continuous X-ray flow in 3C273 from the core (upper left) to the jet. This discovery may reveal insight into the physical processes that power these long-puzzling energetic jets.
