Scientific paper

The quasar Q0420-388 was detected at a wavelength of 1 mm during part of a program of 1-mm observations of optically selected (magnitude less than 17.5) quasars. A strongly inverted spectrum was observed, confirming the high luminosity. The observations support the explanation of the radio-quiet quasar phenomenon as being due to very compact structures which are self-absorbed even at short, centimeter wavelengths.
