| 内容記述 | We present the results of a detailed multifrequency monitoring program of low-frequency variable radio sources. This consists of light curves at 318, 430, 606, 880, and 1400 MHz over a 5 year period. The observations were carried out with the Arecibo 305 m radiotelescope and the Green Bank 91 m radio telescope. The spectral characteristics of the variations confirm the general picture that at least two mechanisms are responsible. The first is clearly intrinsic evolution of synchrotron-emitting components as it is manifested by variations that appear first and most strongly at high frequencies, subsequently drifting to lower frequencies with diminished amplitude. The more common type of low-frequency variability, however, dominates at frequencies below approximately 800 MHz, while the variations near 1 GHz are often quite weak. This spectral property is strong evidence that these variations are interstellar refractive scintillation. |
