Unprecedented extreme high-frequency radio variability in early-stage active galactic nuclei
E. Järvelä, T. Savolainen, M. Berton +9
We report on the discovery of one of the most extreme cases of high-frequency radio variability ever measured in active galactic nuclei (AGN), observed on timescales of days and ex…
Milliarcsecond Core Size Dependence of the Radio Variability of Blazars
Po Chih Hsu, Jun Yi Koay, Satoki Matsushita +6
Studying the long-term radio variability (timescales of months to years) of blazars enables us to gain a better understanding of the physical structure of these objects on sub-pars…
New Tests of Millilensing in the Blazar PKS 1413+135
A. L. Peirson, I. Liodakis, A. C. S. Readhead +26
Symmetric Achromatic Variability (SAV) is a rare form of radio variability in blazars that has been attributed to gravitational millilensing by a ~ mass cond…
The Relativistic Jet Orientation and Host Galaxy of the Peculiar Blazar PKS 1413+135
A. C. S. Readhead, V. Ravi, I. Liodakis +26
PKS 1413+135 is one of the most peculiar blazars known. Its strange properties led to the hypothesis almost four decades ago that it is gravitationally lensed by a mass concentrati…
The presence of interstellar scintillation in the 15 GHz interday variability of 1158 OVRO-monitored blazars
J. Y. Koay, D. L. Jauncey, T. Hovatta +8
We have conducted the first systematic search for interday variability in a large sample of extragalactic radio sources at 15 GHz. From the sample of 1158 radio-selected blazars mo…
MOJAVE. XVII. Jet Kinematics and Parent Population Properties of Relativistically Beamed Radio-Loud Blazars
M. L. Lister, D. C. Homan, T. Hovatta +8
We present results from a parsec-scale jet kinematics study of 409 bright radio-loud AGNs based on 15 GHz VLBA data obtained between 1994 August 31 and 2016 December 26 as part of…
