The Mauritius Radio Telescope (MRT) is a Fourier synthesis instrument which has been built to fill the gap in the availability of deep sky surveys at low radio frequencies in the southern hemisphere. It is situated in the north-east of Mauritius at a southern latitude of 20°.14 and an eastern longitude of 57°.73. The aim of the survey with the MRT is to contribute to the database of southern sky sources in the declination range −70° ≤ δ ≤ −10°, covering the entire 24 hours of right ascension, with a resolution of 4' × 4'.6sec(δ + 20.14°) and a point source sensitivity of 200 mJy (3σ level) at 151.5 MHz.MRT is a T-shaped non-coplanar array consisting of a 2048 m long East-West arm and a 880 m long South arm. In the East-West arm 1024 fixed helices are arranged in 32 groups and in the South arm 16 trolleys, with four helices on each, which move on a rail are used. A 512 channel, 2-bit 3-level complex correlation receiver is used to measure the visibility function. At least 60 days of observing are required for obtaining the visibilities up to the 880 m spacing. The calibrated visibilities are transformed taking care of the non-coplanarity of the array to produce an image of the area of the sky under observation.This paper will describe the telescope, the observations carried out so far, a few interesting aspects of imaging with this non-coplanar array and present results of a low resolution survey (13' × 18') covering roughly 12 hours of right ascension, and also present an image with a resolution of 4' × 4'.6sec(δ + 20.14°) made using the telescope.

Abstract We study an inverse problem involving the restoration of two radiative potentials, not necessarily smooth, simultaneously with initial temperatures in parabolic equations with dynamic boundary conditions. We prove a Lipschitz stability estimate for the relevant potentials using a recent Carleman estimate, and a logarithmic stability result for the initial temperatures by a logarithmic convexity method, based on observations in an arbitrary subdomain.

Myoglobin from the common seal ( Phoca vitulina ) when crystallized from ammonium sulphate forms monoclinic crystals with space group the unit cell, a = 57·9Å, b = 29·6Å, c = 106·4Å, β = 102°15', contains four molecules. The method of isomorphous replacement has been used in an investigation of the centrosymmetric b -axis projection in which it has been possible to determine signs for nearly all the h0l reflexions having spacings greater than 4Å. Three independent heavy-atom derivatives were employed and the signs so determined have been used to compute a map of the electron density projected on the (010) plane. This projection has been interpreted in terms of the molecule of sperm-whale myoglobin, as deduced by Bodo, Dintzis, Kendrew & Wyckoff (1959) from a three-dimensional Fourier synthesis to 6Å resolution. The results of the interpretation show that the two myoglobin molecules are very similar in form (tertiary structure) in spite of the differences in their amino-acid composition. The relative orientation of the two unit cells with respect to the myoglobin molecule is given and a comparison is made of the positions of the heavy atoms in each molecule.

The electron density distribution in the unit cell is calculated at intervals of approximately 2Å and plotted in a series of sections parallel to (010). The contour maps show that haemoglobin consists of four subunits in a tetrahedral array. The subunits are identical in pairs in accordance with the twofold symmetry of the molecule. The two pairs are very similar in structure, and the members of each pair closely resemble the molecule of sperm-whale myoglobin. The four haem groups lie in separate pockets at the surface of the molecule. The positions of the iron atoms are confirmed by comparison of observed and calculated anomalous scattering effects, which also serve to determine the absolute configuration of the molecule. The four subunits found by X-ray analysis correspond to the four polypeptide chains into which haemoglobin can be divided by chemical methods. In horse haemoglobin the amino acid sequence within these chains is still partly unknown, but in human haemoglobin it has already been determined. Comparison of this sequence with the tertiary structure of the chains as now revealed in horse haemoglobin and with the atomic model of sperm-whale myoglobin recently obtained by Kendrew and his collaborators shows many interesting relations. Prolines appear to come where the chains turn corners or where their configuration is known to be non-helical. On the other hand, the chains also have corners which contain no proline. Certain residues appear to be structurally vital, because they appear in identical positions in myoglobin and in the two chains of haemoglobin, while in other parts of the molecule a wide variety of different side-chains appears to be allowed.

In the title compound, [PdCl2(C10H8N2)]·CH2Cl2, the Pd2+ion is four-coordinated in a slightly distorted square-planar environment by two N atoms of the 2,2′-bipyridine (bipy) ligand and two chloride ions. The compound displays intramolecular C—H...Cl hydrogen bonds and pairs of complex molecules are connected by intermolecular C—H...Cl hydrogen bonds. Intermolecular π–π interactions are present between the pyridine rings of the ligand, the shortest centroid–centroid distance being 4.096 (3) Å. As a result of the electronic nature of the chelate ring, it is possible to create π–π interactions to its symmetry-related counterpart [3.720 (2) Å] and also with a pyridine ring [3.570 (3) Å] of the bipy unit. The present structure is a redetermination of a previous structure [Vicenteet al.(1997). Private communication (refcode PYCXMN02). CCDC, Cambridge, England]. In the new structure refinement all H atoms were located in a difference Fourier synthesis. Their coordinates were refined freely, together with isotropic displacement parameters.

Since nearly all discrete radio sources of astronomical interest are of insufficient angular extent for their detailed structural properties to be accessible to single-dish radio telescopes, radio interferometry must be employed to gain information on the morphologies of these objects. Recently constructed imaging interferometer arrays which employ the technique of Fourier synthesis, particularly MERLIN and the VLA (Very Large Array), and the more recent VLBI arrays, have given unprecedented imaging capabilities, with the result that our knowledge, and hence perceptions, of discrete radio sources have vastly changed over the last few years. An equally important parallel development has been image processing algorithms. These have vastly improved the quality of information produced by these arrays, so that an instrument such as the VLA can now produce images with speed and quality exceeding original design specifications by factors of 100 to 1000.
