Crowdsourcing quality control for Dark Energy Survey images

P. Melchior, E. Sheldon, A. Drlica-Wagner +47

We have developed a crowdsourcing web application for image quality control employed by the Dark Energy Survey. Dubbed the "DES exposure checker", it renders science-grade images d…

Bayesian Inference for Radio Observations - Going beyond deconvolution

Michelle Lochner, Bruce A. Bassett, Martin Kunz +4

Radio interferometers suffer from the problem of missing information in their data, due to the gaps between the antennas. This results in artifacts, such as bright rings around sou…

The LOFAR Multifrequency Snapshot Sky Survey (MSSS) I. Survey description and first results

G. H. Heald, R. F. Pizzo, E. Orrú +147

We present the Multifrequency Snapshot Sky Survey (MSSS), the first northern-sky LOFAR imaging survey. In this introductory paper, we first describe in detail the motivation and de…

Quantifying ionospheric effects on time-domain astrophysics with the Murchison Widefield Array

Shyeh Tjing Loi, Tara Murphy, Martin E. Bell +39

Refraction and diffraction of incoming radio waves by the ionosphere induce time variability in the angular positions, peak amplitudes and shapes of radio sources, potentially comp…

Murchison Widefield Array Observations of Anomalous Variability: A Serendipitous Night-time Detection of Interplanetary Scintillation

D. L. Kaplan, S. J. Tingay, P. K. Manoharan +33

We present observations of high-amplitude rapid (2 s) variability toward two bright, compact extragalactic radio sources out of several hundred of the brightest radio sources in on…

Intrinsic Instrumental Polarization and High-Precision Pulsar Timing

Griffin Foster, Aris Karastergiou, Remi Paulin +3

Radio telescopes are used to accurately measure the time of arrival (ToA) of radio pulses in pulsar timing experiments that target mostly millisecond pulsars (MSPs) due to their hi…
