Scientific paper

The MOJAVE blazar sample consists of the 135 brightest, most compact radio-loud AGNs in the northern sky, and it is selected on the basis of VLBA 2 cm correlated flux density exceeding 1.5 Jy (2 Jy south of 0 deg.) at any epoch between 1994.0 and 2004.0. Since 1994 we have been gathering VLBA data on the sample to measure superluminal jet speeds and to better understand the parsec-scale kinematics of AGN jets. We have completed a VLA 20 cm A configuration survey using data obtained by the MOJAVE team and from the NRAO archive. We present new radio continuum maps, radio core dominance distribution and polynomial ridge-line fits (both time-averaged and epoch-specific) to selected parsec-scale jets. The goals of the survey are to investigate whether the extended luminosity of blazars is correlated with parsec-scale jet speed, and also to determine which other parsec-scale properties are related to extended morphology.
