1 MODULATION INDEX – GALACTIC LATITUDE RELATION G. Tsarevsky ASTRO SPACE CENTER, Moscow

2 EXTRAGALACTIC SOURCES RADIO VARIABILITY

3 INTRINSIC?

4 EXTRAGALACTIC SOURCES RADIO VARIABILITY INTRINSIC? EXTRINSIC?

5 QSO is an essentially variable stuff!

6

7 It should vary in radio as well !

8 It should vary in radio as well, and it really vary!

9 Blazar 1514+197 Green Bank Interferometer data Intrinsic variation is over month to year, stronger at 8 GHz. ISS is the variation over day to week, stronger at 2 GHz
