Abstract
One of the principal problems in the radio astronomy of the discrete sources is their identification with visible objects. Identification is necessary in . most instances to determine the distance of a source and thus its intrinsic luminosity. It is of assistance in deciding the probable mechanism for the radio emission. Identification of a reasonable sample of radio sources should be made prior to speculations from statistical studies of the radio sources as a class.
Additional Information
Introductory talk at the session on discrete sources at the U.R.S.I. General Assembly, London, September, 1960. I am indebted to the staff and student members of the California Institute of Technology Radio Observatory for much of the unpublished data used in this paper. The work of this observatory is supported by the United States Office of Naval Research under Contract Nonr 220(19). I wish to thank Dr. Rudolph Minkowski for contributing optical data and for discussion on many points.Attached Files
