OBSERVATIONS OF GALACTIC AND EXTRA-GALACTIC EMISSION AT 408 MC/S. THE DETERMINATION OF THE ACCURATE POSITIONS OF RADIO SOURCES BY THE LUNAR OCCULATION TECHNIQUE. OBSERVATIONS OF EMISSION FROM FLARE STARS.

Abstract

Data obtained from the 408 Mc/s nodding scan survey were processed for computer analysis. Several lunar occultations of radio sources were observed using two radio telescopes as an interferometer, but the data have not yet been analyzed. Radio observations were made of the flare star Ross 154 and correlated with simultaneous optical observations made in the USA and USSR.
