The ASKAP Variables and Slow Transients (VAST) Pilot Survey
Tara Murphy, David L. Kaplan, Adam J. Stewart +52
The Variables and Slow Transients Survey (VAST) on the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP) is designed to detect highly variable and transient radio sources on tim…
Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder: I. System Description
A. W. Hotan, J. D. Bunton, A. P. Chippendale +63
In this paper we describe the system design and capabilities of the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP) radio telescope at the conclusion of its construction proje…
The detection of an extremely bright fast radio burst in a phased array feed survey
Keith Bannister, Ryan Shannon, Jean-Pierre Macquart +53
We report the detection of an ultra-bright fast radio burst (FRB) from a modest, 3.4-day pilot survey with the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder. The survey was conducte…
Astronomical verification of a stabilized frequency reference transfer system for the Square Kilometre Array
David Gozzard, Sascha Schediwy, Richard Dodson +7
In order to meet its cutting-edge scientific objectives, the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescope requires high-precision frequency references to be distributed to each of its an…
The Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder: Performance of the Boolardy Engineering Test Array
D. McConnell, J. R. Allison, K. Bannister +71
We describe the performance of the Boolardy Engineering Test Array (BETA), the prototype for the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder telescope ASKAP. BETA is the first ape…
Wide-field broadband radio imaging with phased array feeds: a pilot multi-epoch continuum survey with ASKAP-BETA
I. Heywood, K. W. Bannister, J. Marvil +45
The Boolardy Engineering Test Array is a 6 x 12 m dish interferometer and the prototype of the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP), equipped with the first generat…
A pilot ASKAP survey of radio transient events in the region around the intermittent pulsar PSR J1107-5907
G. Hobbs, I. Heywood, M. E. Bell +75
We use observations from the Boolardy Engineering Test Array (BETA) of the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP) telescope to search for transient radio sources in t…
ASKAP HI imaging of the galaxy group IC 1459
P. Serra, B. Koribalski, V. Kilborn +76
We present HI imaging of the galaxy group IC 1459 carried out with six antennas of the Australian SKA Pathfinder equipped with phased-array feeds. We detect and resolve HI in eleve…
Discovery of HI gas in a young radio galaxy at using the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder
J. R. Allison, E. M. Sadler, V. A. Moss +100
We report the discovery of a new 21-cm HI absorption system using commissioning data from the Boolardy Engineering Test Array of the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (A…
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…
