Scientific paper

VLB monitoring of the radio core of BL Lac at 2.8 and 3.6 cm wavelengths during 1990 has detected a new superluminal component with properties remarkably similar to those reported from 1980-1987 (Ap.J. 352,81). The apparent speed is v/c ~ 3.1 with a position angle within 3deg of previous components. The observations lend strong support to models of weak shocks in relativistic jets proposed for this source and used in the analysis of previous superluminal components.
