Extract

The Fleurs Synthesis Telescope (FST) has been used to map a number of bright, southern galactic HII regions at 1415 MHz. Descriptions of the FST can be found in Christiansen (1973) and associated papers. For the observations reported here, both the east-west and the north-south arms of the cross were used resulting in beamshapes which are nearly circular with half-power widths of 50” arc. The maps have been “cleaned” using a standard process (Högbom 1974).
