We present high-resolution VLBI radio images of the closest classical radio galaxy, Centaurus A, including the highest resolution image yet for this source.
We present VLBI and Australia Telescope Compact Array images, and derive source frame radio-core brightness temperatures for three prominent, flat-spectrum extragalactic radio sources, notable because they have not been detected as gamma-ray sources with the EGRET instrument.
A sub-parsec scale radio counterjet has been detected in the nucleus of the closest radio galaxy, Centarus A (NGC 5128), with VLBI imaging at 2.3 and 8.4 GHz.
We present high-resolution very long baseline interferometry images of three southern radio sources that the Energetic Gamma-Ray Experiment Telescope (EGRET), on board the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory, has identified as greater than 100 MeV gamma-ray sources.
The remarkably strong radio gravitational lens PKS 1830-211 consists of a one arcsecond diameter Einstein ring with two bright compact (milliarcsecond) components located on opposite sides of the ring. We have obtained 22GHz VLBA data on this source to determine the intrinsic angular sizes of the compact components.
