Some Observations at 6 cm Wavelength with the Australian 210?FT Radio Telescope

Abstract

Recent research in radio astronomy has shown the desirability of making observations at shorter and shorter wavelengths. Although designed originally for operation at a wavelength of 21 cm, the Australian 210-ft telescope has given satisfactory performances at 11 cm, and operation at still shorter wavelengths appeared possible (Bowen and Minnett 1963).
