Powerful extragalactic jets dissipate their kinetic energy far from the central black hole

The location of energy dissipation in powerful extragalactic jets is currently unknown. Here, the authors show that the more distant molecular torus is the dominant location for powerful jets using a diagnostic called the seed factor which is dependent only on observable quantities.
