Improving self-calibration
Torsten A. Enßlin, Henrik Junklewitz, Lars Winderling +2
Response calibration is the process of inferring how much the measured data depend on the signal one is interested in. It is essential for any quantitative signal estimation on the…
RESOLVE: A new algorithm for aperture synthesis imaging of extended emission in radio astronomy
H. Junklewitz, M. R. Bell, M. Selig +1
We present RESOLVE, a new algorithm for radio aperture synthesis imaging of extended and diffuse emission in total intensity. The algorithm is derived using Bayesian statistical in…
Mission design of LiteBIRD
T. Matsumura, Y. Akiba, J. Borrill +66
LiteBIRD is a next-generation satellite mission to measure the polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation. On large angular scales the B-mode polarization of t…
Detecting cosmic rays with the LOFAR radio telescope
P. Schellart, A. Nelles, S. Buitink +102
The low frequency array (LOFAR), is the first radio telescope designed with the capability to measure radio emission from cosmic-ray induced air showers in parallel with interferom…
DPO - Denoising, Deconvolving, and Decomposing Photon Observations
Marco Selig, Torsten Enßlin
The analysis of astronomical images is a non-trivial task. The D3PO algorithm addresses the inference problem of denoising, deconvolving, and decomposing photon observations. Its p…
The Tenth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: First Spectroscopic Data from the SDSS-III Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment
Christopher P. Ahn, Rachael Alexandroff, Carlos Allende Prieto +232
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) has been in operation since 2000 April. This paper presents the tenth public data release (DR10) from its current incarnation, SDSS-III. This da…
Diagnostics for insufficiencies of posterior calculations in Bayesian signal inference
Sebastian Dorn, Niels Oppermann, Torsten A. Enßlin
We present an error-diagnostic validation method for posterior distributions in Bayesian signal inference, an advancement of a previous work. It transfers deviations from the corre…
Chromatic effects in the 21 cm global signal from the cosmic dawn
H. K. Vedantham, L. V. E. Koopmans, A. G. de Bruyn +3
The redshifted 21 cm brightness distribution from neutral hydrogen is a promising probe into the cosmic dark ages, cosmic dawn, and re-ionization. LOFAR's Low Band Antennas (LBA) m…
LOFAR: The LOw-Frequency ARray
M. P. van Haarlem, M. W. Wise, A. W. Gunst +197
LOFAR, the LOw-Frequency ARray, is a new-generation radio interferometer constructed in the north of the Netherlands and across europe. Utilizing a novel phased-array design, LOFAR…
Calibrating High-Precision Faraday Rotation Measurements for LOFAR and the Next Generation of Low-Frequency Radio Telescopes
C. Sotomayor-Beltran, C. Sobey, J. W. T. Hessels +77
Faraday rotation measurements using the current and next generation of low-frequency radio telescopes will provide a powerful probe of astronomical magnetic fields. However, achiev…
Planck 2013 results. IX. HFI spectral response
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +217
The Planck High Frequency Instrument (HFI) spectral response was determined through a series of ground based tests conducted with the HFI focal plane in a cryogenic environment pri…
Planck 2013 results. VII. HFI time response and beams
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +220
This paper characterizes the effective beams,the effective beam window functions and the associated errors for the Planck HFI detectors. The effective beam is the angular response…
Planck 2013 results. V. LFI calibration
Planck Collaboration, N. Aghanim, C. Armitage-Caplan +217
We discuss the methods employed to photometrically calibrate the data acquired by the Low Frequency Instrument on Planck. Our calibration is based on a combination of the Orbital D…
Planck 2013 results. II. Low Frequency Instrument data processing
Planck Collaboration, N. Aghanim, C. Armitage-Caplan +229
We describe the data processing pipeline of the Planck Low Frequency Instrument (LFI) data processing centre (DPC) to create and characterize full-sky maps based on the first 15.5…
Bayesian Classification of Astronomical Objects -- and what is behind it
Jörg P. Rachen
We present a Bayesian method for the identification and classification of objects from sets of astronomical catalogs, given a predefined classification scheme. Identification refer…
An improved sink particle algorithm for SPH simulations
D. A. Hubber, S. Walch, A. P. Whitworth
Numerical simulations of star formation frequently rely on the implementation of sink particles, (a) to avoid expending computational resource on the detailed internal physics of i…
Information field theory
Torsten Enßlin
Non-linear image reconstruction and signal analysis deal with complex inverse problems. To tackle such problems in a systematic way, I present information field theory (IFT) as a m…
