Polarization Calibration of the FAST L-band 19-beam Receiver: I. On-axis Mueller Matrix Parameters
Tao-Chung Ching, Carl Heiles, Di Li +6
We present the polarization calibration of the 19-beam receiver at 1420 MHz within the full illumination of the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Telescope from October 2018 to…
Beam Measurements of Full Stokes Parameters for the FAST L-band 19-beam Receiver
Xunzhou Chen, Tao-Chung Ching, Di Li +7
The Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST) has been fully operational since 11 January 2020. We present a comprehensive analysis of the beam structure for eac…
The Future Of The Arecibo Observatory: The Next Generation Arecibo Telescope
D. Anish Roshi, N. Aponte, E. Araya +71
The Arecibo Observatory (AO) is a multidisciplinary research and education facility that is recognized worldwide as a leading facility in astronomy, planetary, and atmospheric and…
Canada and the SKA from 2020-2030
Kristine Spekkens, Cynthia Chiang, Roland Kothes +57
This white paper submitted for the 2020 Canadian Long-Range Planning process (LRP2020) presents the prospects for Canada and the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) from 2020-2030, focuss…
An ultra-wide bandwidth (704 to 4032 MHz) receiver for the Parkes radio telescope
G. Hobbs, R. N. Manchester, A. Dunning +69
We describe an ultra-wide-bandwidth, low-frequency receiver ("UWL") recently installed on the Parkes radio telescope. The receiver system provides continuous frequency coverage fro…
The Measurement of Polarization in Radio Astronomy
Timothy Robishaw, Carl Heiles
Modern dual-polarization receivers allow a radio telescope to characterize the full polarization state of incoming insterstellar radio waves. Many astronomers incorrectly consider…
