We report on a VLBA imaging study of the nearby bright southern blazar PKS 1921 - 293 (OV - 236). High resolution VLBA observations, made at four frequencies (5, 12, 15, and 43 GHz) over the period 1994 - 2000, have revealed a strongly…
We present three-epoch polarimetric images of the quasar 3C 454.3 obtained with the Very Long Baseline Array at 22 and 43 GHz. 22 GHz polarized intensity images show a sudden change in the polarization structure of a bright eastern…
We used 15 GHz multi-epoch Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) polarization sensitive observations of 484 sources within a time interval 1996--2016 from the MOJAVE program, and also from the NRAO data archive. We have analyzed the linear…
PSO J334.2028+1.4075 (PSO J334) is a luminous quasar located at redshift z=2.06. The source gained attention when periodic flux density variations were discovered in its optical light curve. These variations were initially interpreted as…
A new ASCA observation of 1E 161348-5055, the central compact X-ray source in the supernova remnant RCW 103, reveals an order-of-magnitude decrease in its 3 - 10 keV flux since the previous ASCA measurement four years earlier. This result…
We present the first multi-frequency VLBA study of the quasar 0850+581 which appears to have a two-sided relativistic jet.Apparent velocity in the approaching jet changes from 3.4c to 7c with the separation from the core. The…
We have observed the QSO 3C345 with VSOP at 1.6GHz and 5GHz and with the VLBA at 22GHz and 43GHz, with 24 epochs in total, from 1997.40 to 1999.69. This study, combined with previous observations, reveals periodic changes in the…
We present high angular resolution Very Large Array multi-epoch continuum observations at 3.6 cm and 7 mm towards the core of the L723 multipolar outflow revealing a multiple system of four radio sources suspected to be YSOs in a region of…
Previous Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) observations of the quasar B1152+199 at 5GHz has revealed two images of a strongly lensed jet with seemingly discordant morphologies. Whereas the jet appears straight in one of the images,…
We present the results of high resolution VLBI observations at 1.6 and 4.9 GHz of the radio-loud Seyfert galaxy, Mrk 6. These observations are able to detect a compact radio core in this galaxy for the first time. The core has an inverted…
We report on new VLA radio observations performed at 1.4 GHz and 4.8 GHz with unprecedented sensitivity and angular resolution (~1 arcsec) of the cool core cluster A 2626, which is known to possess a radio mini-halo at its center. The most…
Cluster-central gigahertz peak and compact steep spectrum (CSS) sources offer an opportunity to study the earliest phases of AGN feedback, but few have yet been examined in detail. We present results from radio and X-ray observations of…
We have used VLBA fringe visibility data obtained at 15 GHz to examine the compact structure in 250 extragalactic radio sources. For 171 sources in our sample, more than half of the total flux density seen by the VLBA remains unresolved on…
We present a high-frequency very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) kinematical study of the BL Lac object S5 0716+714 over the time period of September 2008 to October 2010. The aim of the study is to investigate the relation of the jet…
We present the description and early results of the mJy Imaging VLBA Exploration at 20 cm (mJIVE-20). mJIVE-20 is a large project on the Very Long Baseline Array which uses "filler" time to systematically inspect a large sample of mJy radio…
Space very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) observations of the quasar 3C216 with the VLBI Space Observatory Programme (VSOP) reveal that the parsec scale structure of the source can be well described by compact jet models developed for…
Astrometry with the very long baseline radio interferometry (VLBI) allows to determine the position of a point close to the source's brightest compact detail at milliarcsecond scales. For most active galactic nuclei (AGNs), this compact…
We present measurements of bi-directional motions in the jets of the radio galaxy 1946+708 at z=0.101. This is a Compact Symmetric Object with striking S-symmetry. Sensitive 15 GHz observations reveal a compact component at the center of…

Aims. We selected two radio quasars (J1036+1326 and J1353+5725) based on their 1.4-GHz radio structure, which is dominated by a bright central core and a pair of weaker and nearly symmetric lobes at ~10" angular separation. They are…
