Vlbi Diagnostics of Jet Instabilities in 0836+710
  In this paper, we present new VLBA observations of the radio jet in the quasar S5 0836+710 at 8 and 22 GHz. The identification of the ridge lines allow us to interpret the jet structure in terms of Kelvin-Helmholtz instability. Combined with previous epochs of VLBA and VSOP data at 1.6 and 5 GHz, these new observations will allow us to study the evolution of the instabilities in the jet. We have detected signatures of possible jet disruption in the jet due to the growth of instabilities, which points towards a possible morphological classification of the source as an FRI, contrary to what previously thought in terms of luminosity criteria.
