Abstract: We pointed out a possible way to investigate a plasma sheath, Faraday screen, which has been revealed by recent Faraday rotation studies of AGN jets. A high-angular resolution observation of VSOP reveals a sharp absorption feature which suggests free-free absorption by the plasma sheath. The spiral jet configuration could provide, in general, an opportunity to investigate the sheath surrounding AGN jets.
