The C-Band All-Sky Survey (C-BASS): Design and capabilities

Michael E. Jones, Angela C. Taylor, Moumita Aich +23

The C-Band All-Sky Survey (C-BASS) is an all-sky full-polarisation survey at a frequency of 5 GHz, designed to provide complementary data to the all-sky surveys of WMAP and Planck,…

A Radio Determination of the Time of the New Moon

Y. A. Hafez, L. Trojan, F. H. Albaqami +4

The detection of the New Moon at sunset is of importance to communities based on the lunar calendar. This is traditionally undertaken with visual observations. We propose a radio m…

The C-Band All-Sky Survey: Instrument design, status, and first-look data

Oliver G. King, Charles Copley, Rod Davies +13

The C-Band All-Sky Survey (C-BASS) aims to produce sensitive, all-sky maps of diffuse Galactic emission at 5 GHz in total intensity and linear polarization. These maps will be used…

A 33 GHz VSA survey of the Galactic plane from 27 to 46 degrees

M. Todorović, R. D. Davies, C. Dickinson +17

The Very Small Array (VSA) has been used to survey the l = 27 to 46 deg, |b|<4 deg region of the Galactic plane at a resolution of 13 arcmin. The survey consists of 44 pointings of…

Radio source calibration for the VSA and other CMB instruments at around 30 GHz

Yaser A. Hafez, Rod D. Davies, Richard J. Davis +20

Accurate calibration of data is essential for the current generation of CMB experiments. Using data from the Very Small Array (VSA), we describe procedures which will lead to an ac…

Constraints on spinning dust towards Galactic targets with the VSA: a tentative detection of excess microwave emission towards 3C396

Anna Scaife, David A. Green, Richard A. Battye +18

We present results from observations made at 33 GHz with the Very Small Array (VSA) telescope towards potential candidates in the Galactic plane for spinning dust emission. In the…
