This paper presents the sixth part to the Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) Calibrator Survey. It contains the positions and maps of 264 sources of which 169 were not previously observed with very long baseline interferometry (VLBI). This…

We have constructed a sample of bright near-infrared sources which are detected at radio wavelengths but undetected on the POSS I plates in order to search for a population of dust-obscured quasars. Optical and infrared spectroscopic…

Our MAMBO 1.2 mm blank field imaging survey of ~0.75 sqd has uncovered four unusually bright sources, with flux densities between 10 and 90 mJy, all located in the Abell 2125 field. The three brightest are flat spectrum radio sources with…

We present results from the first 22 GHz space very-long-baseline interferometric (VLBI) imaging observations of M87 by RadioAstron. As a part of the Nearby AGN Key Science Program, the source was observed in Feb 2014 at 22 GHz with 21…

The VLBA was used at 1.6 GHz to observe a target field 50 arcminutes in diameter including the core of M31. Novel VLBI correlation techniques were used to observe 200 sources simultaneously, of which 16 were detected. We classify all 16 as…

We present the results of a program to monitor the structure of the radio emission in 42 $\gamma$-ray bright blazars (31 quasars and 11 BL Lac objects) with the VLBA at 43, 22, and occasionally 15 and 8.4 GHz, over the period from November…

Since late 2007, we have been monitoring a large sample of known and likely gamma-ray-loud blazars at 15 GHz twice per week with the Owens Valley Radio Observatory (OVRO) 40 m Telescope. Our initial sample included the 1158 sources above…

We present RadioAstron Space VLBI imaging observations of the BL Lac object S5 0716+71 made on January 3-4 2015 at a frequency of 22 GHz (wavelength $\lambda=1.3$ cm). The observations were made in the framework of the AGN Polarization Key…

We present Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) images of 20 TeV blazars (HBLs) not previously well-studied on the parsec scale. Observations were made between August and December 2013, at a frequency of 8.4 GHz. These observations represent the…

Over the past two decades, our knowledge of the high-redshift (z > 5) radio quasars has expanded, thanks to dedicated high-resolution very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) observations. Distant quasars provide unique information about…

It has been argued that certain broad absorption line quasars are viewed within 35 degrees of the axis of a relativistic radio jet, based on two-epoch radio flux density variability. It is true if the surface brightness of a radio source is…

We present results from a study of 2-8 keV X-ray sources detected by the Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer (ACIS) instrument on the Chandra X-ray Observatory in the field of the z=0.516 cluster CRSS J0030.5+2618. In our 63.5 arcmin^2 search…

We study the most central regions of AGN jets with an angular resolution of tens of micro-arcseconds using VLBI at millimeter wavelengths (mm-VLBI). We present and discuss a new 86 GHz VLBI survey of compact radio sources. We show new high…

The 100-m Robert C. Byrd Green Bank Telescope (GBT) and the Owens Valley Radio Observatory (OVRO) 40-m radio telescope have been used to conduct a survey of 3165 known extragalactic radio sources over 143 square degrees of the sky. Target…

The Jodrell Bank - VLA Astrometric Survey (JVAS) of flat-spectrum sources yielded a catalog of 2118 compact radio sources in the northern sky. Those sources are being used as phase calibrators for many synthesis arrays. JVAS suffers from a…

We report on a recent 90 cm wide-field VLBI survey of two 3.1 deg^2 fields using the VLBA, Westerbork and Jodrell Bank telescopes. In-beam calibration was used to calibrate each field, the process was simplified by imaging the calibrators…

We report on a systematic and sensitive search for pulsars and transient sources in the nearby spiral galaxy M33, conducted at 1.4 GHz with the Arecibo telescope's seven-beam receiver system, ALFA. Data were searched for both periodic and…

We are pursuing a project to build a database of phase calibration sources suitable for Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT). Here we present the first release of 45 low frequency calibration sources at 235 MHz and 610 MHz. These…

The alignment between the radio-based International Celestial Reference Frame (ICRF) and the optical Gaia Celestial Reference Frame (Gaia-CRF) is critical for multi-waveband astronomy, yet systematic offsets at the optical bright end (G<13)…

We cross-identified the ROSAT Bright Source Catalog (RBSC) and the NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS) to construct the RBSC-NVSS sample of the brightest X-ray sources (>= 0.1 counts/s or ~1E-12 ergs/cm/cm/s in the 0.1-2.4 keV band) that are also…
