Close binary systems of the RS CVn and Algol type are characterized by a highly variable radio emission, from typical flux densities of a few mJy during low-activity (quiescent) periods, up to 1 Jy during strong flares. The origin of this radio emission is attributed to the gyrosynchrotron mechanism. Several observations of these stars have shown an evolution of the radio spectrum during both the rising and decay phases of flares. ...

... This thesis sets out to explain this observation by the presence of optical non-thermal synchrotron emission, connected with the relativistic jet that powers the radio emission in these quasars. ... We find that about 40% of the sources have power-law SEDs, while a similar number show evidence for two primary components: a blue power law and optical synchrotron emission. The blue power law is similar to the dominant component observed in the spectra of optically-selected QSOs. ...

... For this paper: postscript PPEUC CMB index 1 Introduction.. ... We report on a 16 ks X-ray observation with the ROSAT PSPC towards the center of a CMB decrement detected by Jones et al. (1997) in the direction of the quasar pair PC1643+4631 A & B. At the position of the decrement we find no evidence for emission by hot gas which could give rise to the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect. ... We conclude that the CMB decrement is not a typical galaxy cluster. ... 2 The ROSAT PSPC observation . ...

... 88, Jan. 1983, p. 1-15. l. A survey of extragalactic radio sources made using driven declination scans is reported covering an area of about 0.07 sr to a limiting flux density of 35 mJy. The fast-scan survey was carried out at a galactic latitude greater than 17 deg with the NRAO 91-m telescope operating at 4.755 GHz, and the 480 sources detected were reobserved at 1.4 GHz with the National Astronomy and Ionosphere Center 305-m telescope at Arecibo. ...
