Models of Polarized and Variable Radio Emission for IDV Source 0917 + 624
نویسنده
چکیده
We examine the power spectra of IDV and show the information, which is to be gained by wavelet analysis of light curves of the quasar 0917+624. Results for total and polarized flux at 11 cm are shown. Both interstellar scattering and intrinsic models have difficulties in explaining the 1 day period variations. A theoretical model for the time averaged emission is presented, which provides the basis for the analysis of possible variations.

Annual modulation in IDV of quasar 0917+624 due to Interstellar Scintillation
The quasar 0917+624 has been one of the best studied intraday variable (IDV) radio sources. However, debate continues as to whether the underlying cause is intrinsic or extrinsic. Much previous work has assumed the IDV to be intrinsic and which implies an extraordinarily compact source for the radio emission; in contrast, an extrinsic variation due to interstellar scintillation (ISS) implies a ...

There is new evidence which identifies seasonal changes of the variability time scale in IDV-sources with refractive interstellar scintillation effects. Such a RISSmodel takes the annual change of the Earth velocity relative to the scattering medium into account. In September 1998 we found a remarkable prolongation of the variability time scale in the IDV-source 0917+624 with only small variati...

We summarize results from flux density monitoring campaigns performed with the 100 m radio-telescope at Effelsberg and the VLA during the past 15 yrs. We briefly discuss some of the statistical properties from now more than 40 high declination sources (δ ≥ 30◦), which show Intraday Variability (IDV). In general, IDV is more pronounced for sources with flat radio spectra and compact VLBI structu...
متن کاملThe ATCA Intraday Variability Survey of Extragalactic Radio Sources
We present the results of an Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) survey for intra-day variability (IDV) of the total and polarized flux densities of 118 compact, flat spectrum, extragalactic radio sources from the Parkes 2.7 GHz Survey. A total of 22 total flux density IDV sources were discovered and 15 sources were found to show IDV of their polarized flux density. We discuss the statisti...
متن کاملVery Long Baseline Array observations of the Intraday Variable source J 1128 + 592
Context. Short time-scale flux density variations of flat spectrum radio sources are often explained by the scattering of radio waves in the turbulent ionized Interstellar Matter of the Milky Way. One of the most convincing observational arguments in favor of this is the annual modulation of the variability time-scale caused by the Earth orbital motion around the Sun. J1128+5925 is a recently d...
