| Description | The infrared research was divided into two related subjects, observations at wavelengths less than 34 microns and millimeter wavelength observations. A new complex of infrared sources in the Orion Nebula observed along with a broad range of galactic and extragalactic objects. The Comet Kohoutek was measured in the 1-20 micron wavelength region and its thermal properties agreed closely with those of Comet Ikeya-Seki. Combined infrared and photoelectric studies of the Makarian galaxies showed them to have a composite spectrum with a large emission feature in the far infrared. The development of one millimeter photometry and composited bolometers is described. A technique of reconstructing two dimensional surface brightness distributions with appropriate errors from individual strip scans was developed. Model parameters were determined by fitting data in non-linear systems. Results show spectral parameter uncertainties are underestimated or incorrectly evaluated in most studies. |
