The Seyfert galaxy NGC 4151 has been imaged at resolution better than 0.1 pc using a VLBI array consisting of the VLBA and three 100m-class telescopes. A flat-spectrum 3-mJy source with a monochromatic radio power of ~10^{37} ergs/s has…

In this letter, we report on dual-frequency European VLBI Network (EVN) observations of the faintest and least luminous radio cores in Seyfert nuclei, going to sub-mJy flux densities and radio luminosities around 10^19 W/Hz. We detect radio…
