A single fast radio burst localized to a massive galaxy at cosmological distance
K. W. Bannister, A. T. Deller, C. Phillips +51
Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) are brief radio emissions from distant astronomical sources. Some are known to repeat, but most are single bursts. Non-repeating FRB observations have had…
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…
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…
Measured Sensitivity of the First Mark II Phased Array Feed on an ASKAP Antenna
A. P. Chippendale, A. J. Brown, R. J. Beresford +8
This paper presents the measured sensitivity of CSIRO's first Mk. II phased array feed (PAF) on an ASKAP antenna. The Mk. II achieves a minimum system-temperature-over-efficiency $…
Measured Aperture-Array Noise Temperature of the Mark II Phased Array Feed for ASKAP
A. P. Chippendale, A. J. Brown, R. J. Beresford +10
We have measured the aperture-array noise temperature of the first Mk. II phased array feed that CSIRO has built for the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder telescope. As…
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…
LUNASKA neutrino search with the Parkes and ATCA telescopes
J. D. Bray, R. D. Ekers, R. J. Protheroe +7
The Moon is used as a target volume for ultra-high energy neutrino searches with terrestrial radio telescopes. The LUNASKA project has conducted observations with the Parkes and AT…
LUNASKA simultaneous neutrino searches with multiple telescopes
J. D. Bray, R. D. Ekers, C. W. James +7
The most sensitive method for detecting neutrinos at the very highest energies is the lunar Cherenkov technique, which employs the Moon as a target volume, using conventional radio…
The Parkes Observatory Pulsar Data Archive
G. Hobbs, D. Miller, R. N. Manchester +39
The Parkes pulsar data archive currently provides access to 144044 data files obtained from observations carried out at the Parkes observatory since the year 1991. Around 10^5 file…
The Australia Telescope Compact Array Broadband Backend (CABB)
Warwick E. Wilson, R. H. Ferris, P. Axtens +30
Here we describe the Compact Array Broadband Backend (CABB) and present first results obtained with the upgraded Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA). The 16-fold increase in o…
