Lunar Surface Arrays

During the latter half of the 1980's three concepts for low frequency arrays on the Moon were independently studied for NASA, leading to two workshops in 1990. The main technical challenges were those of deploying the array on the Moon, and of correlating the data on the Moon or returning all the raw data to Earth.

High Resolution VLBA Observations of NGC 4261

The VLBA's high angular resolution at 22 and 43 GHz allows the nuclei of nearby radio galaxies to be imaged with very high linear resolution. This is the scale on which absorption by the dense ionized inner regions of nuclear accretion disk should be detected.

The First Few Parsecs of the Jets in NGC 4261

We have imaged the nucleus of the nearby radio galaxy NGC 4261 (3C270) with the VLBA at 1.6, 8.4, 22, and 43 GHz. At 8.4 GHz our image reveals a narrow gap in emission just east of the core, which we interpret as absorption by an inner accretion disk seen nearly edge-on.

The Radio Jets and Accretion Disk in NGC 4261

The structure of AGN accretion disks on sub-parsec scales can be probed through free-free absorption of synchrotron emission from the base of symmetric radio jets.

Discovery of Shell-Like Radio-Structure in SN 1993J

The radio-luminous supernova SN 1993J in M81 offers an unprecedented opportunity to study with high linear resolution the details of the growth of a supernova radio structure by means of the VLBI technique.
