observations (of 2 orbits each) are requested at 5 GHz and 1.6 GHz in connection with ground-based 7mm-VLBI monitoring started after a strong outburst in 1996. \smallskip Of all FR II radio galaxies which can be imaged with VLBI, 3C111 is the closest and has the strongest pc-scale radio core. It exhibits clear superluminal motion in the 1-sided jet on the mas-scale. Due to the high spatial resolution available with SVLBI of ~ 6 light-months \cdot (\hhh\cdot 5 GHz/nu) 3C111 is an ideal object for studying the jet formation, spectra, trajectories and separations of core and components, as well as the quasar -- FR II unification hypothesis.
The full Cover Sheets (compressed post-script, typically 50kbytes) can be retrieved. Note that many proposals were reduced in extent by the Scientific Review Committee (e.g. by reducing the number of experiments), however the Cover Sheets contain the full proposal as submitted. Also note that AO2 proposals were submitted in May 1998, and information such as affiliations and contact details has changed for some proposers since that time. The Cover Sheets (and the details on this page, which were derived from the Cover Sheets) may therefore have changed.
