Abstract

We have carried out VLBI test observations of the Korean VLBI Network (KVN) at 22/43-GHz in collaboration with Japanese VLBI Exploration of Radio Astrometry (VERA). In order to evaluate the VLBI system of KVN, we have observed several sources using KVN+VERA. They consist of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs), which are expected to be compact and to have very well-known structures at spatial resolutions of 50-250 Mega-wavelengths, and Galactic star-forming regions and late-type stars, which have bright H2O and SiO maser emission regions. We have investigated baseline and imaging sensitivities of KVN+VERA. In this talk we report the preliminary results.
