Insight into Astrophysical Phenomena from VLBI Source Position Instabilities
International audience Most of the radio sources observed by VLBI, some used as defining sources in the International Celestial Reference Frame [ICRF2], show instabilities in position. These instabilities may be caused by astrophysical phenomena occurring in the central VLBI region of these objects...
