Abstract:

The technique of investigating the position and flux density of 35 Gc and 70 Gc Tau A radiation and 35 Gc and 94 Gc Sgr A radiation are described. Tau A 35 Gc and Sgr A 35 Gc flux densities were 420 60 x 10 to the minus 26th power wsq mcps and 290 100 x 10 to the minus 26th power wsq mcps, respectively. The flux density of Tau A 70 Gc interpreted from an antenna temperature signal to noise ratio of approximately 2 to 1 was 790 450 x 10 to the minus 26th power wsq mcps. Observations of 94 Gc of Sgr A, having a calculated antenna temperature standard deviation of 0.2C, revealed no source of radiation at the central position of Sgr A 35 Gc. The 35 Gc position of Tau A and Sgr A coincided, within the limits of the measuring accuracy 3 s R. A. and 1 Dec., with lower frequency source positions. Author
