Four pillars of radio astronomyMills, Christiansen, Wild, Bracewell /[electronic resource] :by R.H. Frater, W.M. Goss, H.W. Wendt. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2017. - xvii, 199 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm. - Astronomers' universe,1614-659X. - Astronomers' universe..

This is the story of Bernie Mills, Chris Christiansen, Paul Wild and Ron Bracewell, members of a team of radio astronomers that would lead Australia, and the world, into this new field of research. Each of the four is remembered for his remarkable work: Mills for the development the cross type instrument that now bears his name; Christiansen for the application of rotational synthesis techniques; Wild for the masterful joining of observations and theory to elicit the nature of the solar atmosphere; Bracewell for his contribution to imaging theory. As well, these Four Pillars are remembered for creating a remarkable environment for scientific discovery and for influencing the careers of future generations. Their pursuit of basic science helped pave the way for technological developments in areas ranging from Wi-Fi to sonar to medical imaging to air navigation, and for underpinning the foundations of modern cosmology and astrophysics.
