The multi-wavelength jet for 3C 273 spanning 10". The left panel shows the 1.6 GHz radio emission as detected by MERLIN, the centre image shows the optical emission using HST, and on the right is the X-ray emission from Chandra. The jet is emitted from the core of the AGN and the intensity varies across the electromagnetic spectrum. The bright knots and areas of weak emission are evidence of a structured morphology.
