Scientific paper

We have made 3.6 cm VLBI observations of the RS CVn binary star IM Pegasi (HR 8703) approximately four times per year since 1997 in support of the NASA-Stanford Relativity Gyroscope Experiment (Gravity Probe B). Phase-referenced maps reveal structural changes in the radio emission of the star on hour time scales during several of the sessions. Analyses of the VLBI phase delays with a Kalman-filter estimator reveal submilliarcsecond motions of the radio centroid of the star on hour and even sub-hour time scales. The observed structural changes and centroid motions often coincide with rapid changes in the star's flux density, as measured with the VLA. We report on our latest results and summarize our findings to date.
