Extract

The Parkes Interferometer was designed and constructed by the CSIRO Radiophysics Laboratory. It is unique in having continuously variable North-South and East-West baselines making possible plotting the visibility function of a source in a single observation. From an engineering point of view it is noteworthy in that the receivers, control circuits and computer employ semi-conductors exclusively.
