Comparison of simulations with the large scale radio galaxy M87.
Comparison between a snapshot from Movie 2 (left panel) with the large scale radio structure of the famous radio galaxy M87. In the M87 image, you can see two bubbles formed by the disrupted pair of jets emanating from the centre of the galaxy, and a hierarchy of intermediate-sized structures and filaments, similar to what is produced in the (single jet) simulation in the left panel.
