Applying full polarization A-Projection to very wide field of view instruments: An imager for LOFAR

C. Tasse, B. van der Tol, J. van Zwieten +2

The aimed high sensitivities and large fields of view of the new generation of interferometers impose to reach high dynamic range of order 1: to 1: in the case of…

The thermal state of molecular clouds in the Galactic Center: evidence for non-photon-driven heating

Y. Ao, C. Henkel, K. M. Menten +6

We used the Atacama Pathfinder Experiment (APEX) 12 m telescope to observe the J_KaKc=3_03-2_02, 3_22-2_21, and 3_21-2_20 transitions of para-H_2CO at 218 GHz simultaneously to det…

On Measuring the CMB Temperature at Redshift 0.89

Mayumi Sato, Mark J. Reid, Karl M. Menten +1

We report on a measurement of the temperature of the cosmic microwave background radiation field, T_CMB, at z = 0.88582 by imaging HC3N (3-2) and (5-4) absorption in the foreground…

The anatomy of an extreme starburst within 1.3Gyr of the Big Bang revealed by ALMA

C. L. Carilli, D. Riechers, F. Walter +5

We present further analysis of the [CII] 158m fine structure line and thermal dust continuum emission from the archetype extreme starburst/AGN group of galaxies in the early Uni…

Mosaiced wide-field VLBI observations of the Lockman Hole/XMM

Enno Middelberg, Adam Deller, Ray Norris +6

Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) play a decisive role in galaxy evolution, particularly so when operating in a radiatively inefficient mode, where they launch powerful jets that reshap…

Tracing Electron Beams in the Sun's Corona with Radio Dynamic Imaging Spectroscopy

Bin Chen, Timothy S. Bastian, Stephen M. White +4

We report observations of type III radio bursts at decimeter wavelengths (type IIIdm bursts) -- signatures of suprathermal electron beams propagating in the low corona -- using the…
