6 cm (left) and 20 cm (right) VLBA images of the nuclear region of NGC 7479. The contour levels are at (–4, 4, 6, 8) × 7.5 μJy beam−1 (left) and at (–4, 4, 6, 8, 10) × 14 μJy beam−1 (right). The synthesized beam sizes are 4.0 mas × 1.7 mas (P.A. = −5) and 14.6 mas × 6.1 mas (P.A. = −4) for the 6 and 20 cm images, respectively, and are shown in the lower left corner of each image. The grayscale wedges are in units of μJy beam−1. The letters “N” and “S” and the numbers “1” and “2” are the labels of the radio emission components detected in the VLBA 6 cm image.
