The Murchison Widefield Array Phase III upgrade: Sensitivity Doubled, Number of Baselines Quadrupled, Flexibility Enhanced, and EoR Observations Optimised
S. J. Tingay, M. Johnston-Hollitt, R. B. Wayth +32
We describe the latest iteration of upgrades (designated Phase III) to the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA), in the fourth paper in a series that covers the evolution of the telesco…
MWAX: A New Correlator for the Murchison Widefield Array
I. S. Morrison, B. Crosse, G. Sleap +7
We describe the design, validation, and commissioning of a new correlator termed "MWAX" for the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) low-frequency radio telescope. MWAX replaces an earl…
The Engineering Development Array 2: design, performance and lessons from an SKA-Low prototype station
Randall Wayth, Marcin Sokolowski, Jess Broderick +21
We present the Engineering Development Array 2, which is one of two instruments built as a second generation prototype station for the future Square Kilometre Array Low Frequency A…
Calibration database for the Murchison Widefield Array All-Sky Virtual Observatory
M. Sokolowski, C. H. Jordan, G. Sleap +11
We present a calibration component for the Murchison Widefield Array All-Sky Virtual Observatory (MWA ASVO) utilising a newly developed PostgreSQL database of calibration solutions…
Science with the Murchison Widefield Array: Phase I Results and Phase II Opportunities
A. P. Beardsley, M. Johnston-Hollitt, C. M. Trott +56
The Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) is an open access telescope dedicated to studying the low frequency (80300 MHz) southern sky. Since beginning operations in mid 2013, the MWA…
A VOEvent based automatic trigger system for the Murchison Widefield Array
P. J. Hancock, G. E. Anderson, A. Williams +22
The Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) is an electronically steered low frequency (\,MHz) radio interferometer, with a `slew' time less than 8seconds. Low frequency (\…
The Phase II Murchison Widefield Array: Design Overview
Randall B. Wayth, Steven J. Tingay, Cathryn M. Trott +26
We describe the motivation and design details of the "Phase II" upgrade of the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) radio telescope. The expansion doubles to 256 the number of antenna t…
In situ measurement of MWA primary beam variation using ORBCOMM
J. L. B. Line, B. McKinley, J. Rasti +21
We provide the first in situ measurements of antenna element (tile) beam shapes of the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA), a low radio-frequency interferometer and an SKA precursor. M…
Comparing Redundant and Sky Model Based Interferometric Calibration: A First Look with Phase II of the MWA
W. Li, J. C. Pober, B. J. Hazelton +53
Interferometric arrays seeking to measure the 21 cm signal from the Epoch of Reionization must contend with overwhelmingly bright emission from foreground sources. Accurate recover…
The Engineering Development Array: A low frequency radio telescope utilising SKA precursor technology
Randall Wayth, Marcin Sokolowski, Tom Booler +21
We describe the design and performance of the Engineering Development Array (EDA), which is a low frequency radio telescope comprising 256 dual-polarisation dipole antennas working…
