Scientific paper

Since the Compact Array began operating as a National Facility in April 1991, new exciting results have been provided by observations of southern galaxies (normal galaxies, radio galaxies, megamaser galaxies), supernova remnants in the Magellanic Clouds, and objects within our Galaxy (a Galactic Center transient source, maser regions in molecular clouds, pulsar identifications and stellar radio emission). Major future development of the Australia Telescope includes the 'tieing' of the six 22-m antennas of the Compact Array at Narrabri, providing better short-baseline configurations, extending observing frequencies on both the Compact Array and the Mopra (near Coonabarabran) antennas to 115 GHz, and completing the correlator, recording system and satellite for the Long Baseline Array (which includes the Mopra antenna and the Parkes 64-m antenna). Further downstream will see the development of focal-plane arrays, and baseline additions to the Compact Array.
