Extract

The Chatterton Astronomy Department of Sydney University, in collaboration with the Astronomy Group of Imperial College (London), has carried out a program of speckle interferometry on the 3.9 m Anglo-Australian Telescope (AAT). Over 2 km of film were exposed during the two observing sessions in November and December, 1978, and the analysis of this very large amount of data is being carried out at the present time.
