Abstract
THE discovery of quasi-stellar objects has brought with it the realization that bremsstrahlung radiation in the radio wave region as generated in a plasma has not been properly understood. The present communication represents an effort to account for the unusually high levels of radio emission from quasars and to explain, in particular, the spectral output from the sub-structures A and B of 3C-273.
