Maser science at Tidbinbilla

Abstract

The 70 m antenna at Canberra Deep Space Communication Complex (Tidbinbilla) is the largest and most sensitive dish in the southern hemisphere, working at 1, 3, 13 and 18 cm, and as such is in high demand from astronomers both in Australia and overseas. In this paper we present the current status of the single dish spectroscopy system and highlight some recent results in maser science. † Present address:
