Probing the Three-Dimensional Structure of a Jet with Faraday Tomography

Magnetic fields play a fundamental role in the dynamics and radiation of jets associated with active galactic nuclei (AGNs), where they accelerate and collimate the relativistic plasma and produce the observed synchrotron emission.
