Sardinia Radio Telescope observations of Local Group dwarf galaxies -- I. The cases of NGC6822, IC1613, and WLM
A. Tarchi, P. Castangia, G. Surcis +10
Almost all dwarf galaxies in the Local Group that are not satellites of the Milky Way or M31, belong to either one of two highly-symmetric planes. It is still a matter of debate, w…
Characterising the high-mass star forming filament G351.776--0.527 with Herschel and APEX dust continuum and gas observations
S. Leurini, E. Schisano, T. Pillai +13
G351.776-0.527 is among the most massive, closest, and youngest filaments in the inner Galactic plane and therefore it is an ideal laboratory to study the kinematics of dense gas a…
Sardinia Radio Telescope wide-band spectral-polarimetric observations of the galaxy cluster 3C 129
M. Murgia, F. Govoni, E. Carretti +27
We present new observations of the galaxy cluster 3C 129 obtained with the Sardinia Radio Telescope in the frequency range 6000-7200 MHz, with the aim to image the large-angular-sc…
Pulsar observations with European telescopes for testing gravity and detecting gravitational waves
D. Perrodin, C. G. Bassa, G. H. Janssen +20
A background of nanohertz gravitational waves from supermassive black hole binaries could soon be detected by pulsar timing arrays, which measure the times-of-arrival of radio puls…
The Sardinia Radio Telescope: From a Technological Project to a Radio Observatory
I. Prandoni, M. Murgia, A. Tarchi +43
[Abridged] The Sardinia Radio Telescope (SRT) is the new 64-m dish operated by INAF (Italy). Its active surface will allow us to observe at frequencies of up to 116 GHz. At the mom…
