The Thousand-Pulsar-Array programme on MeerKAT II: observing strategy for pulsar monitoring with subarrays
X. Song, P. Weltevrede, M. J. Keith +15
The Thousand Pulsar Array (TPA) project currently monitors about 500 pulsars with the sensitive MeerKAT radio telescope by using subarrays to observe multiple sources simultaneousl…
The LOFAR Two Meter Sky Survey: Deep Fields, I -- Direction-dependent calibration and imaging
C. Tasse, T. Shimwell, M. J. Hardcastle +29
The Low Frequency Array (LOFAR) is an ideal instrument to conduct deep extragalactic surveys. It has a large field of view and is sensitive to large scale and compact emission. It…
The Thousand-Pulsar-Array programme on MeerKAT IV: Polarisation properties of young, energetic pulsars
M. Serylak, S. Johnston, M. Kramer +16
We present observations of 35 high spin-down energy radio pulsars using the MeerKAT telescope. Polarisation profiles and associated parameters are also presented. We derive the geo…
MeerKAT's discovery of a radio relic in the bimodal merging cluster A2384
V. Parekh, K. Thorat, R. Kale +12
We present the discovery of a single radio relic located at the edge of the galaxy cluster A2384, using the MeerKAT radio telescope. A2384 is a nearby ( = 0.092), low mass, comp…
MeerKAT-16 HI observation of the dIrr galaxy WLM
Roger Ianjamasimanana, Brenda Namumba, Athanaseus J. T. Ramaila +19
We present observations and models of the kinematics and the distribution of the neutral hydrogen (HI) in the isolated dwarf irregular galaxy, Wolf-Lundmark-Melotte (WLM). We obser…
MeerKATHI -- an end-to-end data reduction pipeline for MeerKAT and other radio telescopes
Gyula I. G. Józsa, Sarah V. White, Kshitij Thorat +13
MeerKATHI is the current development name for a radio-interferometric data reduction pipeline, assembled by an international collaboration. We create a publicly available end-to-en…
The MeerKAT Telescope as a Pulsar Facility: System verification and early science results from MeerTime
M. Bailes, A. Jameson, F. Abbate +72
We describe system verification tests and early science results from the pulsar processor (PTUSE) developed for the newly-commissioned 64-dish SARAO MeerKAT radio telescope in Sout…
Field sources near the southern-sky calibrator PKS B1934-638: effect on spectral line observations with SKA-MID and its precursors
I. Heywood, E. Lenc, P. Serra +8
Accurate instrumental bandpass corrections are essential for the reliable interpretation of spectral lines from targeted and survey-mode observations with radio interferometers. Ba…
The Thousand-Pulsar-Array programme on MeerKAT I: Science objectives and first results
Simon Johnston, A. Karastergiou, M. J. Keith +24
We report here on initial results from the Thousand Pulsar Array (TPA) programme, part of the Large Survey Project "MeerTime" on the MeerKAT telescope. The interferometer is used i…
