Abstract:
We present results from simultaneous EVN and MERLIN observations of the FR 1 radio galaxy 3C 264 at 5 GHz. The combination of these two arrays allows us to obtain radio images with resolutions ranging from 4.6 to 118 mas. Moreover, we compare similar resolution images from MERLIN and the HST, compute the spectral index along the jet between optical and radio wavelengths, and confirm the synchrotron nature of the optical jet in 3C 264. ©1997 Elsevier Science B.V.
