Extract

Compact radio sources have been observed over several years at 2.3 GHz by interferometers of the NASA-JPL Deep Space Network with trans- or inter-continental baselines to study the secular behaviour of fine structure appearing in these sources. A comparison of the variation in flux density of components of diameter < 0.001 arcsec with the corresponding variation in total flux density of the source at the same frequency indicated that variations could be wholly ascribed to components of this order of magnitude.
