Scientific paper

The Parkes hydrogen line interferometer has been used to measure 21 cm absorption profiles for 42 radio sources: approximately half are supernova remnants and most of the remainder are H II regions. We have used the results to determine kinematic distances to the sources and have thus greatly increased the number of galactic radio sources with well-determined distances. For supernova remnants this is of special importance, since very few reliable distance calibrators have previously been available.
