The HI Parkes Zone of Avoidance Survey: the Northern Extension
J. L. Donley, L. Staveley-Smith, R. C. Kraan-Korteweg +6
We present the results of the northern extension of the HI Parkes Zone of Avoidance Survey, a blind HI survey utilizing the multibeam receiver on the Parkes 64-m telescope. In the…
The HIPASS Catalogue: III - Optical Counterparts & Isolated Dark Galaxies
Marianne T. Doyle, M. J. Drinkwater, D. J. Rohde +38
We present the largest catalogue to date of optical counterparts for HI radio-selected galaxies, Hopcat. Of the 4315 HI radio-detected sources from the HI Parkes All Sky Survey (Hi…
The Northern HIPASS catalogue - Data presentation, completeness and reliability measures
O. I. Wong, E. V. Ryan-Weber, D. A. Garcia-Appadoo +32
The Northern HIPASS catalogue (NHICAT) is the northern extension of the HIPASS catalogue, HICAT (Meyer et al. 2004). This extension adds the sky area between the declination range…
An ultra-wide bandwidth (704 to 4032 MHz) receiver for the Parkes radio telescope
G. Hobbs, R. N. Manchester, A. Dunning +69
We describe an ultra-wide-bandwidth, low-frequency receiver ("UWL") recently installed on the Parkes radio telescope. The receiver system provides continuous frequency coverage fro…
SDHDF: A new file format for spectral-domain radio astronomy data
L. J. Toomey, G. Hobbs, D. C. Price +17
Radio astronomy file formats are now required to store wide frequency bandwidths and multiple simultaneous receiver beams and must be able to account for versatile observing modes…
The 1000 Brightest HIPASS Galaxies: HI Mass Function and Omega_HI
M. A. Zwaan, L. Staveley-Smith, B. S. Koribalski +37
We present a new accurate measurement of the HI mass function of galaxies from the HIPASS Bright Galaxy Catalog, a sample of 1000 galaxies with the highest HI peak flux densities i…
A pilot ASKAP survey of radio transient events in the region around the intermittent pulsar PSR J1107-5907
G. Hobbs, I. Heywood, M. E. Bell +75
We use observations from the Boolardy Engineering Test Array (BETA) of the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP) telescope to search for transient radio sources in t…
The Aao/Ukst Supercosmos H-alpha Survey (SHS)
Q. A. Parker, S. Phillipps, M. J. Pierce +19
The UK Schmidt Telescope (UKST) of the Anglo-Australian Observatory completed a narrow-band H-alpha plus [NII] 6548, 6584A survey of the Southern Galactic Plane and Magellanic Clou…
