Scientific paper

The Maximum Entropy Method (MEM) for the deconvolution of radio interferometry images is mathematically well based and presents a number of advantages over the usual CLEAN deconvolution, such as appreciably higher resolution. The application of MEM for polarisation imaging remains relatively little studied. CLEAN and MEM intensity and polarisation techniques are discussed in application to recently obtained 18cm VLBA polarisation data for a sample of Active Galactic Nuclei.
