Extract

Our previous observations of the distribution of the H110α recombination line emission (rest frequency 4.87 GHz) towards Sgr A, obtained with the Parkes 64-m telescope and a 4′ .5 arc beam (Gardner and Whiteoak 1977 — to be referred to as Paper I), suggested that the emission was concentrated around the outer edge of the ‘arc’ of continuum radiation which extends 15′ arc to the north-east of the galactic nucleus.
