AbstractMeasurements of broad-band 6-frequency 1-22 GHz spectra of 660 compact extragalactic radio sources were performed in 1997 (for declinations −30° < δ < + 43°) and 1998 (north of+49°) at RATAN-600. “Average rest-frame” statistical spectral shapes for different subsamples of sources are analyzed. These shapes and each spectrum observed can be represented as the sum of a spectrum of an extended optically thin component (magnetized envelope/lobe), constant or slowly variable and dominating at lower frequencies, and a spectrum of a compact component (relativistic jet), dominating at higher frequencies, with any type of variability. We have revealed specific radio features of the EGRET sub-sample; this favors the models suggesting a relation between the emission mechanisms in radio and gamma-ray ranges. Sources are sampled for which the most compact VLBI structure is expected.
