Distribution of the logarithm of the intensity of a minijet for various angles θ between the line of sight and the jet axis. The intensity is proportional to δ3 + s, where δ is the Doppler factor and s the spectral index. These distributions are obtained simulating random orientations of a minijet for s = 1, for a jet boost Γ = 5, and a minijet boost γ = 5, without generality loss. While the intensity decreases when the misalignment increases, the slope of the distribution remains the same as in the “blazar” case, θ = 0.
