Scientific paper

The brightest compact radio source in the nucleus of M82 has a linear diameter of about 0.02 parsecs (25 light-days). On the basis of this small size and energy considerations, it seems that this source is probably not a supernova remnant, but is similar in nature to the compact radio sources found in the nuclei of spiral and elliptical galaxies, Seyfert galaxies, radio galaxies, and in quasi-stellar objects.
