Geophysics and Gravity Measurements

The monitoring of the flux density variations of SS 433 at 11.1 and 3.7 cm has been extended to a total of 1073 days (JD 2444067-JD 2445150). The variations are characterized by quiescent and active flaring periods as was found previously (Johnston et al. 1981). There does not appear to be any dominant temporal period in the variations indicating little or no coupling between the optical and radio radiation. The radio variations are consistent with continuous injection of relativistic electrons into an optically thin region of emission, namely the 'radio jets'.
