Extract

On 1975 August 22 an outburst above the west limb of the Sun was observed with the Culgoora radioheliograph at 43, 80 and 160 MHz. The first stages of the event included intense type III/V bursts followed by a type II burst with multiple, fundamental and harmonic bands and herringbone structure. While the type II burst was still in progress a moving type IV burst appeared. It was eventually observed out to a distance of more than 3 R. This was the first moving type IV burst observed with the two-dimensional radioheliograph operating at three frequencies; as such it provides valuable constraints on models of moving type IV sources.
