We present results on global very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) observations at 327 MHz of eighteen compact steep-spectrum (CSS) and GHz-peaked spectrum (GPS) radio sources from the 3C and the Peacock & Wall catalogues. About 80 per…

Short time-scale flux density variations of flat spectrum radio sources are often explained by the scattering of radio waves in the turbulent, ionized Interstellar Matter of the Milky Way. One of the most convincing observational arguments…

Clues to the physical conditions in radio cores of blazars come from measurements of brightness temperatures as well as effects produced by intrinsic opacity. We study the properties of the ultra compact blazar AO 0235+164 with RadioAstron…

We present the observational results from the 43-GHz Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) observations of 124 compact radio-loud active galactic nuclei (AGNs) that were conducted between 2014 November and 2016 May. The typical dimensions of the…

We report the results of high-resolution 5 GHz Very Long Baseline Array and European VLBI Network observations of 36 nearby galaxies, an extension of the Legacy e-MERLIN Multi-band Imaging of Nearby Galaxies (LeMMINGs) survey. Our sample…

Previous spectral energy distribution modeling based on XMM-Newton X-ray observation of the classical double-lobed radio galaxy 3C 411 left the possibility open for the presence of a blazar-like core. We investigated this scenario by…

We present deep 63-orbit HST/PC images at ~0.06" FWHM resolution in the filters B_450, V_606 & I_814 - as well as in redshifted Lya - of the radio source LBDS 53W002, a compact narrow-line galaxy at z=2.390. These images allow us to…

We present a radio and optical study of the double-double radio galaxy J1328+2752 based on new low-frequency GMRT observations and SDSS data. The radio data were used to investigate the morphology and to perform a spectral index analysis.…

We present very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) images of ten very high redshift (z>3) quasars at 5 GHz. The sources 0004+139, 0830+101, 0906+041, 0938+119 and 1500+045 were observed in September 1992 using a global VLBI array, while…

The large, powerful Fanaroff-Riley class II radio source 3CR 68.1 is an optically red quasar with strong evidence for dust reddening, intrinsic ultraviolet line absorption, and X-ray absorption. In the context of its large, extended radio…

Multifrequency Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) observations were performed to study the radio morphology and the synchrotron spectra of four high frequency peaking radio sources. They are resolved in several compact components and the radio…

We used 8.4 GHz VLBI images obtained at up to 35 epochs between 1997 and 2005 to examine the radio structures of the main reference source, 3C 454.3, and two secondary reference sources, B2250+194 and B2252+172, for the guide star for the…

We present analysis of a homogeneous, optically selected, volume-limited ($0.2<z<0.3$) sample of 128 radio-quiet quasi-stellar objects (QSOs) recently observed at 6 GHz with the Very Large Array (VLA) in A-configuration ($\sim0.33''$…

Compact symmetric objects (CSOs) are radio-emitting active galactic nuclei (AGNs) typically with a double-lobed radio structure confined to within 1 kpc. CSOs represent the earliest evolutionary phase of jetted AGNs. Some of them may…

Compact Symmetric Objects (CSOs) are small (less than 1 kpc) radio sources which have symmetric double lobes or jets. The dominant theory for the small size of these objects is that they are young radio sources which could grow into larger…

We present 8.4 GHz VLA A-array and 1.4 GHz VLBA results on the radio continuum emission from the highest redshift radio-loud quasar known to date, the $z=6.12$ QSO J1427+3312. The VLA observations show an unresolved steep spectrum source…

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…
