Abstract

Since 1967, radio scientists have used the Deep Space Network 26- and 64-mdiameter antenna stations to investigate pulsars, quasars, and radio galaxies, to study the effect of solar corona on radio signals, and to observe radio emissions from x-ray sources. Very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) techniques have been used for high-resolution studies of quasars. During the reporting period, VLBI obsevations were made of quasars and pulsars as part of the Quasar Patrol. Support was also provided by the 64-m-diameter antenna to search for interstellar molecules and to observe radiation from Jupiter.
