Radioastron-Arecibo Space VLBI survey of AGN at extreme angular resolution

We request 40 hours of Arecibo time in February-May 2012 for a non-imaging Space VLBI survey for the brightest and most compact AGN jet cores with Radioastron and Arecibo at L and C bands. The main goal of this pro ject is to determine the correlated flux density, angular size, and brightness temperature of the most compact structure(s) in the AGN radio core located in the jet base. We will probe the inverse-Compton limit and Doppler boosting of AGN cores testing the current widely accepted jet model of synchrotron emitting relativistic electrons, inverse-Compton cooling, and relativistic beaming. This proposal is submitted as part of the Radioastron early science program.
