Scientific paper

The improving sensitivity of the Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) arrays and the phase-referencing technique enable us to image mJy radio sources with milliarcsecond angular resolution. The potential targets can be orders of magnitude fainter than those objects traditionally imaged with VLBI. These include weak nuclei of large radio galaxies, radio-quiet quasars, distant but relatively luminous, or nearby low-luminosity active galactic nuclei. Here we briefly mention the most recent studies and outline the concept and initial results of the Deep Extragalactic VLBI-Optical Survey (DEVOS).
