A Cosmic Census of Radio Pulsars with the SKA
E. F. Keane, B. Bhattacharyya, M. Kramer +16
The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) will make ground breaking discoveries in pulsar science. In this chapter we outline the SKA surveys for new pulsars, as well as how we will perform…
Effect of gain and phase errors on SKA1-low imaging quality from 50-600 MHz
David Sinclair, Fred Dulwich, Benjamin Mort +3
Simulations of SKA1-low were performed to estimate the noise level in images produced by the telescope over a frequency range 50-600 MHz, which extends the 50-350 MHz range of the…
The Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder: System Architecture and Specifications of the Boolardy Engineering Test Array
A. W. Hotan, J. D. Bunton, L. Harvey-Smith +98
This paper describes the system architecture of a newly constructed radio telescope - the Boolardy Engineering Test Array, which is a prototype of the Australian Square Kilometre A…
The Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy (VISTA): Design, Technical Overview and Performance
Will Sutherland, Jim Emerson, Gavin Dalton +19
The Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy (VISTA) is the 4-metre wide-field survey telescope at ESO's Paranal Observatory, equipped with the world's largest near-infr…
Conversion of New Zealand's 30m Telecommunication Antenna into a Radio Telescope
Lewis Woodburn, Tim Natusch, Stuart Weston +3
We describe our approach to the conversion of a former 100-foot (30-m) telecommunication antenna in New Zealand into a radio telescope. We provide the specifications of the Earth S…
Aperture Array Configurations for SKA1 Core
Keith Grainge
This memo considers some aspects of the configuration of the SKA1 Low Frequency Aperture Array, both at the element and station level. At the element level I propose a possible sce…
