A Catalogue of Major Metre-Wavelength Solar Events Recorded by the Dapto and Culgoora Solar Radio Observatories (1961-1981)

Abstract

We present a catalogue of 668 major metre-wavelength radio events. The data was collected from dynamic spectra (taken at Dapto, N.S.W. until 1966 and at Culgoora, N.S.W. thereafter) by means of a radio spectrograph, which records the intensity of radio emission as a function of both frequency and time. A description of the major types of metre-wavelength phenomena can be found in Wild et al. (1963), Kundu (1965), Wild and Smerd (1972) and Kruger (1979), and details of the radio spectrograph in Sheridan (1963, 1967) and Labrum (1972).
