The Ohio SETI Program: The Last Decades
Abel Méndez, Robert S. Dixon, Russell K. Childers, 2026. arXiv (Proceedings of IAU Symposium 404, Advancing the Search for Technosignatures).
A history of the Ohio State SETI programme (1973–1998) by its last director, its chief observer and the leader of the Arecibo Wow! project: about 70 per cent of the sky surveyed, more than 40,000 transient narrowband events logged, two million punch cards and tapes digitised, about a hundred Wow! follow-ups, most of the archive unexamined.
