Phase Reference VLBI Astrometry for Mira-Type Stars

We carried out phase reference VLBI observations at 43 GHz between SiO masers in Mira type variables and adjacent extragalactic continuum source with VLBA. Main aim of this observation is determination of spatial distribution between SiO maser spots at v = 1 and v = 2, J=l→0 transition. Although the standard calibration was successful for each source, the phase reference calibration have not been successful. However, we will determine the absolute positional difference of each SiO maser spot within about 1 milli arcsecond due to the structure effect of reference source if the phase reference VLBI is successful
