VLA Observation Parameters Test VLA observations (configuration D) of M87 (RA=12:28, Dec=12:40) took place on November 16 th, There were 22 antennas enabled. Frequency bands: K (K1=21300, K2=22200, K3=23000, K4=23400 MHz) и U (U1=14700, U1=15200 MHz) Total observation time were 3 hours.

Goals of the VLA Experiment Multi-frequency synthesis (MFS) of a M87 at the reference frequency (21.3 GHz) with bandwidth of 7 GHz by means of a new class of the multi-frequency imaging (MFI) algorithms developed at ASC. Multi-frequency analysis (MFA) of M87. Estimation of a spectral index maps of the source on the same reference frequency. Comparison of the obtained results with the existing MFI-technologies at NRAO. Investigations of the improvement of image fidelity due to MFS.

Tools NRAO has used AIPS software ( one can find the results of the data processing obtained by L. Kogan on the web site Astro Space Center (ASC) has used ASL for Windows software

MFS Data Processing Steps (ASL for Windows) Maps synthesis by means of self-calibration procedure for all six frequencies (14665, 15135, 21535, 21965, 22935, MHz). Synthesis of the image of M87 on the reference frequency (21535 MHz) by means of generalized linear multi-frequency deconvolution algorithm. Spectral analysis of the image (spectral indexes map, spectrum of different parts of the image of M87).
