Scientific paper

The paper presents single-antenna measurements of radio emission from 120 galaxies in the Virgo cluster at 2380 MHz using a 2.6 arc min beam (half-power beam width). It also presents interferometric measurements at the same frequency for 48 galaxies with less than or equal to 1 arc sec resolution. The relative concentration of the radio emission for these galaxies, particularly the emission from the galactic disk compared with that from the nucleus is discussed. It is found that the disk emission dominates in most cases. Some indications that the flux concentration is greater in elliptical and lenticular galaxies than it is in spirals are also found.
