Abstract

We have collected an up-to-date sample of 123 superluminal sources (84 quasars, 27 BL Lac objects and 12 galaxies) and calculated the apparent velocities ({beta}_app_) for 224 components in the sources with the {Lambda}-CDM model. We checked the relationships between their proper motions, redshifts, {beta}_app_ and 5GHz flux densities. Our analysis shows that the radio emission is strongly boosted by the Doppler effect. The superluminal motion and the relativistic beaming boosting effect are, to some extent, the same in active galactic nuclei.
