Precise Radio Source Positions from Mark III VLBI
This catalog contains observations from 600 Mark III VLBI experiments from conducted between 1979 to 1988. These experiments resulted in 237681 acceptable pairs of group delay... -
Galactic plane VERA survey
In order to search for new VLBI sources in the galactic plane that can be used as phase reference sources in differential VLBI, we conducted 22GHz observations of radio sources... -
MOJAVE XIV. AGN jet shapes & opening angles
We present 15 GHz stacked VLBA images of 373 jets associated with active galactic nuclei (AGN) having at least 5 observing epochs within a 20yr time interval 1994-2015 from the... -
Sou323 ICRF reference sample
We aim to evaluate the possibility of improving the International Celestial Reference System realization starting from the ICRF2 catalogue by investigating the coordinate time... -
Implications of the Galactic aberration for CRF
During the last few years, much attention has been paid to the astrometric implications of the galactic aberration in proper motions (GA). This effect causes systematic errors... -
The epoch ICRF
The epoch International Celestial Reference Frame (epoch ICRF) is proposed as a new concept in order to consider the effect of apparent proper motion of the position of a radio... -
AB Dor A VLBI images
The fast rotator, pre-main sequence star AB Dor A is a strong and persistent radio emitter. The extraordinary coronal flaring activity is thought to be the origin of compact... -
VLBI images of gamma-ray nova V407 Cygni
In 2010 March, the Large Area Telescope on board Fermi revealed a transient gamma-ray source that is positionally coincident with the optical nova in the symbiotic binary, V407... -
VLBI suvey around B0218+357 at 90cm
We report on the first wide-field, very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) survey at 90cm. The survey area consists of two overlapping 28deg^2^ fields centered on the quasar... -
VLBI ICRF2
We present the second realization of the International Celestial Reference Frame (ICRF2) at radio wavelengths using nearly 30 years of Very Long Baseline Interferometry... -
Optically Bright extragalactic Radio Sources II
Future space-borne astrometry missions, such as Gaia, will be able to determine the optical positions of hundreds of quasars with submilliarcsecond accuracies comparable to... -
VLBI ICRF. II
We use very long baseline interferometry data obtained between mid-1995 and the end of 2002 May together with older data to extend and revise the International Celestial... -
TXS 2013+370 gamma-ray emitting region
The gamma-ray production mechanism and its localization in blazars are still a matter of debate. The main goal of this paper is to constrain the location of the high-energy... -
Time stability of the ICRF2 axes
I assess the astrometric stability of the 295 defining sources of the current best realization of the International Celestial Reference System (ICRS): the second realization of... -
Radio source selection for the ICRF
The most accurate realization of a quasi inertial reference frame, the International Celestial Reference Frame (ICRF), is made of 212 defining extragalactic radio sources whose... -
Radio-optical reference frame link
Between 1997 and 2004 several observing runs were conducted mainly with the CTIO 0.9m to image ICRF counterparts (mostly QSOs) in order to determine accurate optical positions.... -
International Celestial Reference Frame 2, ICRF2
This Technical Note describes the generation by an international team of the second realization of the International Celestial Reference Frame (ICRF2) at radio wavelengths using... -
VLBI International Celestial Reference Frame (ICRF)
The International Celestial Reference Frame (ICRF), is intended for adoption be the International Astronomical Union (IAU) as the conventional celestial system, under the name... -
Closure Plots for "Source Structure and Measurement Noise Are as Important as...
Plots of closure delay, closure phase, and closure amplitude are provided for the geodetic very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) observations of the Continuous VLBI Campaign...
