Scientific paper

The gravitationally image double quasar 0957+561 has been observed at an angular resolution of 0arcsec.3 using the full VLA at 6 cm wavelength. These observations demonstrate structure in the B radio quasar component and in the radio source G which lies close to the nucleus of primary lens galaxy G1. When combined with earlier observations, the data show that most of the flux in the G radio source is probably due to a nuclear source intrinsic to the lens galaxy G1. The radio properties of this galaxy are similar to those of M87. The structure of the B quasar region strongly suggests that an additional image of the arc second radio jet has been found. No unambiguous evidence for the third quasar image B2 was found near B or near the galaxy G1, but limits are obtained on the intensity of B2 as a function of its separation from the nucleus of the lens galaxy G1.
