Observations of a lunar occultation of a radio source may provide information concerning both the distribution of radio “brightness” across the source and its accurate position. For sources of which these results are already fairly well known, observations at long wavelengths may be used to derive the density of the lunar atmosphere [1]. During recent years two such occultations have been observed at Cambridge: one, the occultation of IC 443, the large-diameter radio source in the constellation of Gemini, from which the density of the lunar atmosphere was estimated to be less than 10–12 of that of the density of the terrestrial atmosphere [2] and [3]; and two, the occultation of the Crab nebula on 1956 January 24 [4].

The radio properties of the Crab Nebula pulsar are reviewed. The pulsar lies at the centre of the Crab Nebula and has a period of 33 msec. Its increase in period with time releases an amount of energy which is equal in magnitude to the total radiated power. Instabilities in the period of the Crab pulsar have been discovered with timescales ranging from days to months. The length of the pulse increases at longer wavelengths due apparently to multipath propagation effects. A characteristic of the Crab pulsar is the great intensity of the occasional pulse.

We present and describe recent radio observations of the Crab Nebula, which allow us to determine the magnetic field orientation and depolarization at unprecedented resolution. The observations were made in 1987-1988 using all four configurations of the VLA, at 1410,1515,4625, and 4885 MHz. The resulting maps were all convolved with a clean beam of 1.8″ × 2.0″, elongated in P.A. 80°, and the residuals added back in.
