Maser Monitoring Organization
The group was formed during the September 2017 IAUS symposium Unlocking The Mysteries OF The Universe
The aim of this group is to form a network of MASER monitoring telescopes with the following functions:
- Provide calibration and confirmation services to each telescope
- Create catalogues of interesting and monitored sources
- Develop triggering methodologies
- Operate as a 24 hour monitoring service when required
- Inform other facilities of interesting phenomena
- Provide fast follow-up observation services
- Provide multi-wavelength monitoring
