Jonas Heßdörfer

Jonas Heßdörfer is a researcher at the Chair of Astronomy, University of Würzburg, Germany, where he works within Prof. Dr. Matthias Kadler's research group (AG Kadler). His office is located in room 31.02.009 on the Hubland Nord campus at Emil-Fischer-Straße 31, 97074 Würzburg, with contact details including email jonas.hessdoerfer@uni-wuerzburg.de and phone +49931/3186283.

His primary research focuses on compact radio jets in active galaxies, specifically investigating radio spectral variability and polarimetry of TeV-emitting active galactic nuclei (AGN). He employs advanced observational methods including single-dish radio astronomy and radio-interferometric techniques, utilizing the mm-VLBI (Global mm-VLBI Array) network and the Effelsberg 100-m Telescope as part of the TELAMON project. His work contributes to high-energy astrophysics research within the FRANCI initiative (Astrophysics in North Bavaria).

He is actively involved in the department's research activities, collaborating on observational studies of AGN phenomena while contributing to the university's astronomy curriculum and research infrastructure. His work connects with broader efforts in radio astronomy and high-energy astrophysics within the European research community.
