摘要: We investigate observational properties of a kilo-parsec scale knot in radio-loud quasar 3C 380 by using two epoch archival data obtained Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) at 5 GHz on 1998 July and 2001 April. succeed obtaining the highest spatial resolution image bright K1 located 732 milliarcseconds, or more than 20 kpc de-projected, downstream from nucleus three times better previously Papageorgiou et al. (2006). Our images reveal, with new clarity, "inverted bow-shock" structure facing its morphology resembles conical shock wave. By comparing directly, we explore kinematics obtain upper limit apparent velocity, 0.25 mas/yr 9.8 c for first time. The velocity is marginally smaller superluminal motions seen core region. Further VLBI observations are necessary to measure proper motion K1.
