摘要:

内容:这是一系列论文中的第一篇,介绍了293个加州理工学院-乔德雷尔银行平谱(以下简称CJF)源的VLBI观测及其分析。目的:CJF的主要目标之一是对源的视速度进行统计研究。方法:自1990年以来,我们进行了全球5 GHz VLBI和VLBA观测,积累了13个独立的观测活动。结果如下:我们在这里提出了一个概述的意见,提供详细的数据减少,并提出了源参数从模型拟合过程。对于每个观测时期的每个源,显示图像,通过将与干净光束卷积的模型拟合分量恢复为残差图像而建立,残差图像是通过在首先减去UV平面中的模型拟合分量之后对可见度数据进行傅立叶变换而制成的。重叠绘制我们显示符号来表示模型组件。结论:我们已经产生了所有的VLBI图像,但在几个时代的完整的CJF样本中的293个源,并研究了266 AGN的运动学。

英文摘要:

Context: This is the first of a series of papers presenting VLBI observations of the 293 Caltech-Jodrell Bank Flat-Spectrum (hereafter CJF) sources and their analysis. Aims: One of the major goals of the CJF is to make a statistical study of the apparent velocities of the sources. Methods: We have conducted global VLBI and VLBA observations at 5 GHz since 1990, accumulating thirteen separate observing campaigns. Results: We present here an overview of the observations, give details of the data reduction and present the source parameters resulting from a model-fitting procedure. For every source at every observing epoch, an image is shown, built up by restoring the model-fitted components, convolved with the clean beam, into the residual image, which was made by Fourier transforming the visibility data after first subtracting the model-fitted components in the uv-plane. Overplotted we show symbols to represent the model components. Conclusions: We have produced VLBI images of all but 5 of the 293 sources in the complete CJF sample at several epochs and investigated the kinematics of 266 AGN.
