SURVEY OF 9.4CM RADIO EMISSION IN CASSIOPEIA AND CEPHEUS,

Abstract

Results of a detailed survey in the region of the galactic plane between longitudes of 101 degrees and 140 degrees are presented. The 10-metre parabolic reflector of the National Research Council of Canada was used in this investigation, with a radiometer centred at 3200 Mc/s and capable of detecting 0.1 degrees equivalent antenna temperature. In comparison with more central parts of the Milky Way, the emission from this region is not intense; however, some twenty-five sources have been detected, and the relevant estimates of flux density, source size, and emission measure are listed.
