GMVA 86 GHz images of 3C 84. In both panels, the contours show the total intensity and increase by a factor of two from the lowest level (5 mJy beam⁻¹). A negative contour of −5 mJy beam⁻¹ is also shown with dashed lines. Left panel: stokes I image restored with an elliptical beam of 0.22 × 0.10 mas and position angle of −10°. This beam is larger than the full resolution attainable with the GMVA. The peak of this image is 3.04 Jy beam⁻¹. The cyan ellipse in the bottom-left corner illustrates the elliptical beam. The color scale represents the Stokes I pixel values in Jy beam⁻¹. The white bar and the text in the upper left corner denote the projected spatial scale of the image. Right panel: inner jet structure obtained with the full angular resolution of the GMVA. The color scale represents the linear polarization intensity and starts from 16.5 mJy beam⁻¹.
