Scientific paper

Resolution improvements provided by the ongoing space VLBI mission VSOP provide an excellent opportunity for studying novel aspects of the physics of compact, parsec-scale jets in active galactic nuclei. Visibilities on space baselines contain structural information that cannot be recovered by overresolving ground array data at the same frequency. We illustrate this by discussing the results from recent VSOP observations of parsec-scale jets in 0836+710 and 3C273. For both objects, the VSOP observations have allowed to directly observe plasma instabilities developing in the jets.
