摘要
We analyze the radio light curve of 3C 273 at 15 GHz from 1963 to 2006 taken from the database of the literature,and find evidence of quasi-periodic activity.Using the wavelet analysis method to analyze these data,our results indicate that:(1) There is one main outburst period of P1=8.1±0.1 year in 3C 273.This period is in a good agreement with Ozernoi's analysis in optical bands.(2) Based on the possible periods,we expect the next burst in 2014 October.
