First release of Apertif imaging survey data
Elizabeth A. K. Adams, B. Adebahr, W. J. G. de Blok +56
(Abridged) Apertif is a phased-array feed system for WSRT, providing forty instantaneous beams over 300 MHz of bandwidth. A dedicated survey program started on 1 July 2019, with th…
Characterising the Apertif primary beam response
H. Dénes, K. M. Hess, E. A. K. Adams +27
Context. Phased Array Feeds (PAFs) are multi element receivers in the focal plane of a telescope that make it possible to form simultaneously multiple beams on the sky by combining…
Apercal -- The Apertif Calibration Pipeline
B. Adebahr, R. Schulz, T. J. Dijkema +33
Apertif (APERture Tile In Focus) is one of the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) pathfinder facilities. The Apertif project is an upgrade to the 50-year-old Westerbork Synthesis Radio T…
Apertif, Phased Array Feeds for the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope
W. A. van Cappellen, T. A. Oosterloo, M. A. W. Verheijen +87
We describe the APERture Tile In Focus (Apertif) system, a phased array feed (PAF) upgrade of the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope which has transformed this telescope into a h…
