Angular structure of extragalactic radio sources at low frequencies
The low frequency VLBI of URAN network operated in the decameter range has been designed in Ukraine to study cosmic radio sources. The network consists of five radio telescopes making up of four interferometers with baselines range from 42 to 913 km with UTR-2 radio telescope operated as the main antenna of the interferometers. The angular resolution of the network amount to 1 arcsec at the highest frequency of the range, and its sensitivity is about 20 Jy. Regular observations of galactic and extragalactic radio sources are performed with the network. Some results of studies are presented here
Research of the fine structure of the radio galaxy 3C 234 with radio interferometer URAN-2
The brief description and the basic characteristics of the radio interferometer URAN-2 aerial system, included in VLBI decameter system URAN, are presented. The research results of the 3C 234 angular structure with URAN system are submitted. The model of radiobrightness distribution of this source at frequencies of 20 and 25 MHz is obtained. With the URAN-2 radio interferometer compact details in a radio galaxy have been found and their contribution to the general flow of a radio emission at decameter waves is determined. The effect of reabsorption in compact details (hot spots) is found and their true angular size are determined based on the research of the 3C234 spectrum
