Sub-Mm Astronomy: Telescopes

Scientific paper

The Swedish-ESO Submillimetre Telescope (SEST) completed one full year of scheduled observations at the end of March this year. Its performance has Surprised and delighted many - its trouble- free operation and the c1ear skies of La Silla combining to effect large volumes of data. Few users of SEST have returned home disappointed. That the telescope has filled an important need is seen clearly in the demand for observing time: its over-subscription, averaged over the year and over ESO and Swedtsh users, amounted to a factor of about 2.5. This issue of the Messenger is devoted in part to summaries of work done with the new telescope. Some of the work described is already published but most is still undergoing analysis; we are grateful to those people who have written the summaries and to those who have provided data prior to publication.
