Extract

As part of an identification programme undertaken on the southern section of the Molonglo Deep Sky Survey of Radio Sources, the limiting magnitudes of some of the available ESO-B films and SRC-J films and plates in this area have been determined. The Molonglo Deep Sky Survey has been described by Robertson (1977). The southern section comprises a 45’ wide strip centred about declination -62° and stretching in an irregular fashion from 18h 25m to 00h 16m.
