Scientific paper

A group of astronomers, physicists, and technicians from Perth Observatory, Curtin University of Technology, and the University of Western Australia have formed PARG - Perth Astronomy Research Group. Its principal aim is to automate Perth Observatory's main instrument - the Lowell-Perth 61-cm reflector - and equip it with a CCD camera, for the purpose of searching for supernovae in other galaxies and monitoring for other transient astronomical phenomena, particularly stellar flares. This new activity represents a major change of direction for the Observatory, as well as a welcome collaboration with Perth's universities.
