- Very long baseline interferometer observations at 4997 MHz (lambda = 6 cm) on European and intercontinental baselines with lengths up to 1.35 108lambda have been used to probe the milliarc s structure of the BL Lacertae objects AO 0235+164, 0735+178, BL Lac, 1749+701, Mk 421, and 3C 66A. Two sets of observations are reported, made in November 1978 and March 1979. AO 0235+164 and 0735+178 both showed structures consisting of a very bright, unresolved core and a jet-like component extending ˜5".4 10-3 along position angle ˜20° and ˜4".2 10-3 along position angle ˜45°, respectively. AO 0235+164 contained more than 98% of the total flux density within a diameter of ≲ 36" 10-3. BL Lac, 1749+701 and Mk 421 all showed evidence for a complex structure of several components, including an unresolved core. 3 C 66A was elongated along position angle ˜ -45°.

- VLBI observations were performed of 21 radio sources which exhibit low frequency variability. The integrated flux densities, variability indices at 0.4 GHz, optical magnitudes, redshifts, spectral indices at 0.4 GHz, and flux intensities with respect to a reference energy flux are provided. The VLBI data were synthesized from observatories located on different continents around the world. All structures were emitted from compact sources with sizes confined to milliarcsc scales. Nearly half displayed core-jet morphologies, while 28 percent had complex structures and 14 percent had either simple structures or were not resolvable. Further observations are proceeding at 400 mHz to confirm the presence of synchrotron electrons and magnetic fields ejected at relativistic speeds along the line of sight, which has the appearance of superluminal velocities.
