Plot of angular separation from core vs. epoch for fitted Gaussian jet components in 4C +21.35. Color symbols indicate robust components for which kinematic fits were obtained (dotted and solid lines). The solid lines indicate vector motion fits to the data points assuming no acceleration, while the dotted lines indicate accelerated motion fits. Thick lines are used for components whose fitted motion is along a radial direction from the core, while the thin lines indicate non-radial motions. Unfilled black circles indicate non-robust components. The component identification numbers are located next to the last epoch of each robust component.
