The RATAN-600 radio telescope (Kaidanovsky & al. 1972) was designed for solving various problems of astrophysics and radiophysics (Pariisky & al. 1972, Gelfreikh & al. 1972). Because of its high resolving power and large collecting area, this instrument can be used to measure accurate positions of radio sources.

Survey type observations have been made with the Parkes radio-telescope of 4 galactic radio sources having either a non-thermal radio spectrum, or exhibiting shell structure in their emitting regions. Observations were made at a wavelength of 11 cm using the Parkes radiotelescope where the beamwidth is about 7.5 min.arc.

Zwicky started extragalactic supernovae patrol using 10 inch Schmidt camera about fifty years ago. After that the research of supernovae was accelerated, because the wide view of the Schmidt camera made it possible to watch large field of the sky. The key technology of the Schmidt camera was its sophisticated optical system.Anticipated next supernova in our Galaxy may be undetectable by the optical instrument due to the Galactic extinction. However, supernovae are now known to be intense radio sources after a year or so of the explosion. Even if the positions are beyond the Galactic center, the radio supernova could be observed using middle size radio telescope.

AbstractIVS is under study in ESA as a second generation space VLBI observatory. The mission concept calls for a 25 m diameter radio telescope in space funded by the principal space agencies. Orbiting the Earth and observing in concert with the established ground-based VLBI arrays in Europe, USA, USSR and Australia, IVS will provide high quality images of galactic and extragalactic radio sources at wavelengths spanning the radio band from decimetres to millimetres with resolution as high as 10 micro arcseconds and sensitivity equal to those of ground-based images. New features of IVS compared to the first generation missions are: a more than order of magnitude increase in sensitivity; an order of magnitude increase in maximum angular resolution; extension of the wavelength range to the millimetre band; and the capability to operate as a stand-alone radio telescope enabling it to explore new frontiers in spectral line and microwave background research, in particular the distribution of galactic molecular oxygen and Compton scattering of the microwave background by foreground cluster gas.

Lower Frequencies

The flux densities of 67 non-thermal radio sources have been measured at a frequency of 5000 Mc/s with the CSIRO 210 ft radio telescope at Parkes. The sources were chosen from the stronger objects in the 3C catalogue (Edge et al. 1959), the CTA and CTD catalogues (Harris and Roberts 1960; Kellermann and Read 1965), and the Parkes catalogue (Bolton, Gardner, and Mackey 1964; Price and Milne 1965; Day et al. 1966). In the selection of sources observed in this program, special emphasis was placed on objects whose spectra at lower frequencies showed significant departures from the usual power law with an index near -0�8. Most of the sources reported here have not been previously measured at wavelengths shorter than 10 cm and thus the present observations extend the frequency range of their spectra by nearly a factor of two.

A catalogue has been prepared of the radio sources observed between declinations -50� and -80�, using the Sydney cross-type radio telescope at a wavelength of 3�5 m; a total of 219 sources is listed. This supplements the earlier catalogues for the declination ranges +10� to -20� and -20� to -50�. In addition to the positions and intensities of the sources, angular sizes of 42 of the strongest sources are given. As before, identifications with bright optical objects have been sought, and a number of possible identifications with emission nebulae and bright galaxies are listed. Because of the small area of sky covered by the present catalogue, the numbers of sources are small (compared with those in our earlier catalogues) so that the statistical analysis of their distribution has comparatively low weight.

From Abell's (1958) list of clusters of galaxies, 137 clusters of distance group 5 were observed at 1410 MHz with the 210 ft radio telescope of the Australian National Radio Astronomy Observatory at Parkes. The detected radio sources were further confirmed hy observations at 2650 MHz with the same telescope and at 408 MHz with the east-west arm of the Mills Cross at the Molonglo Radio Astronomical Observatory. A total of 25 radio sources was detected within 5' arc of the centres of corresponding clusters of galaxies, while the mathematical expectation of the number of random coincidences with clusters is about two or three

Radio Transmitters

The published measurements of the intensity of the radio sources cover a frequency range down to a lower limit of 22·6 Mc./s., at which measurements have been made on Cygnus and Cassiopeia by Hey and Hughes (1954)[1]. Information about the spectrum at still lower frequencies is difficult to obtain because of interference arising from ionospheric reflexion of distant radio transmitters. Some of this trouble can be alleviated by using a narrow pencil-beam radio telescope for reception and the present communication describes measurements made on frequencies of 16·5, 19·0, 22·6 and 30·0 Mc./s. using the 218 ft. transit radio telescope at Jodrell Bank.
