Proposal Title: RadioAstron­Arecibo Space VLBI survey of AGN at the highest angular resolu­
tions
ABSTRACT:
We request 60 hours of Arecibo time starting from July 2012 for a non­imaging Space VLBI survey for the
brightest and most compact AGN jet cores with RadioAstron and Arecibo at L and C bands supplemented by
exploratory P­band measurements. The main goal of this project 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 inverse­Compton limit and Doppler boosting of AGN cores testing the current widely
accepted jet model of synchrotron emitting relativistic electrons, inverse­Compton cooling, and relativistic
beaming. This proposal is submitted as part of the RadioAstron early science program to cover its full period until
the beginning of 2013 following on the accepted Arecibo proposal V2691.
