The Orion Nebula has been observed at 408 MHz with the 1 mile Cross radio telescope at the Molonglo Radio Observatory. NGC 1976 and NGC 1982 were observed separately and the former was well resolved.. Comparison with high frequency results shows that the central region is opti('ally thick; the electron temperature was measured directly at 7 6000K � 800 degK. Both nebulae are strongly concentrated towards their exciting stars..

In a current programme at the Molonglo Radio Observatory using the high-resolution pencil beam of the instrument (∼3′ arc) an attempt is being made to extend the measured spectra of known planetary nebulae down to 408 MHz. Of 23 such planetaries already investigated, 14 have been detected. The main results will be given elsewhere; here it is proposed to discuss in detail only the well-known planetary nebula IC 418.

AbstractIn the framework of the Astronomical Validation and Early Science activities of the Sardinia Radio Telescope (SRT, www.srt.inaf.it), we performed 22 GHz imaging observations of SNR W44 and IC443. Thanks to the single-dish imaging performances of SRT and innovative ad hoc imaging techniques, we obtained maps that provide a detailed view of the structure of the remnants. We are planning to exploit the high-frequency radio data of SNRs to better characterize the spatially-resolved spectra and search for possible spectral steepening or breaks in selected SNR regions, assessing the high-energy tail of the region-dependent electron distribution.

Attempts have been made to detect 14 bright emission nebulae at a wavelength of 3?5 m using a pencil-beam radio telescope with a beamwidth of 50 min of arc. Of these nebulae, six were probably observed in emission, seven were undetectable, and one, NGC 6357, was observed in absorption; radio isophotes were obtained for NGC 2237 and NGC 3372. Radio and optical data have been combined to estimate electron densities, masses, and sometimes the electron temperature of many of the nebulae. Values range from an electron density of 3 cm?3 and a mass of 3�10. solar masses for the outer regions of the 30 Doradus complex to an average electron density of 500 cm?3 and a mass of 20 solar masses for the Orion Nebula. Temperatures generally appear to be in the neighbourhood of 10,000 �K, except in the case of NGC 6357, for which 6500 �K is estimated.

The Sydney University one mile cross-type radio telescope at the Molonglo Radio Observatory has been used to study the 30 Doradus nebula with high resolution (~3´ arc) at 408 MHz. This preliminary report compares these observations with Balmer line isophotes published by Faulkner. A description of the calibration procedures used in the present observations, an analysis of the various radio features in the 30 Doradus region, and a comparison with previous observations at other frequencies, will be described in a later paper.

The radio object associated with Sco X—1 noted by Andrew and Purton has been observed at a wavelength of 6 cm with the 210 ft radio telescope at the Australian National Radio Observatory, Parkes. At this wavelength the half-power antenna beamwidth is 4′ arc.

Pansharpening is the process of fusing a low-resolution multispectral (LRMS) image with a high-resolution panchromatic (PAN) image. In the process of pansharpening, the LRMS image is often directly upsampled by a scale of 4, which may result in the loss of high-frequency details in the fused high-resolution multispectral (HRMS) image. To solve this problem, we put forward a novel progressive cascade deep residual network (PCDRN) with two residual subnetworks for pansharpening. The network adjusts the size of an MS image to the size of a PAN image twice and gradually fuses the LRMS image with the PAN image in a coarse-to-fine manner. To prevent an overly-smooth phenomenon and achieve high-quality fusion results, a multitask loss function is defined to train our network. Furthermore, to eliminate checkerboard artifacts in the fusion results, we employ a resize-convolution approach instead of transposed convolution for upsampling LRMS images. Experimental results on the Pléiades and WorldView-3 datasets prove that PCDRN exhibits superior performance compared to other popular pansharpening methods in terms of quantitative and visual assessments.

In this paper, we use the hydrodynamic approach to study the stimulated scattering of high-frequency electromagnetic waves by a low-frequency electrostatic perturbation that is either an upper- or lower-hybrid wave in a two-electron-temperature plasma. Considering the four-wave interaction between a strong high-frequency pump and the low-frequency electrostatic perturbation (LHW or UHW), we obtain the dispersion relation for the scattered wave, which is then solved to obtain an explicit expression for the growth rate of the coupled modes. For a typical Q-machine plasma, results show that in both cases the growth rate increases with noh/noc. This is in contrast with the results of Guha & Asthana (1989), who predicted that, for scattering by a UHW perturbation, the growth rate should decrease with increasing noh/noc.
