That pesky A-term: Efficiently correcting for direction-, time-, and baseline-dependent effects in radio interferometric imaging

Torrance Hodgson

Radio interferometers must grapple with apparent fields of view that distort the true radio sky. These so-called 'A-term' distortions may be direction-, time- and baseline-dependen…

The Rapid ASKAP Continuum Survey IV: continuum imaging at 1367.5 MHz and the first data release of RACS-mid

S. W. Duchesne, A. J. M. Thomson, J. Pritchard +15

The Australian SKA Pathfinder (ASKAP) is being used to undertake a campaign to rapidly survey the sky in three frequency bands across its operational spectral range. The first pass…

Improved Sensitivity for Space Domain Awareness Observations with the Murchison Widefield Array

Steve Prabu, Paul J Hancock, Xiang Zhang +4

Our previously reported survey of the Low Earth Orbit (LEO) environment using the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) detected over 70 unique Resident Space Objects (RSOs) over multipl…

Searching for the Synchrotron Cosmic Web Again: A replication attempt

Torrance Hodgson, Melanie Johnston-Hollitt, Benjamin McKinley +1

We follow up on the surprising recent announcement by Vernstrom et al. (2021) of the detection of the synchrotron cosmic web. We attempt to reproduce their detection with new obser…

Stacking the Synchrotron Cosmic Web with FIGARO

Torrance Hodgson, Franco Vazza, Melanie Johnston-Hollitt +1

Recently Vernstrom et al. (2021) claimed the first definitive detection of the synchrotron cosmic web, obtained by `stacking' hundreds of thousands of pairs of close-proximity clus…

FIGARO Simulation: FIlaments & GAlactic RadiO Simulation

Torrance Hodgson, Franco Vazza, Melanie Johnston-Hollitt +1

We produce the first low to mid frequency radio simulation that incorporates both traditional extragalactic radio sources as well as synchrotron cosmic web emission. The FIlaments…

Ultra-Steep Spectrum Radio `Jellyfish' Uncovered in Abell 2877

Torrance Hodgson, Iacopo Bartalucci, Melanie Johnston-Hollitt +3

We report on the discovery of a mysterious ultra-steep spectrum (USS) synchrotron source in the galaxy cluster Abell 2877. We have observed the source with the Murchison Widefield…

SPT-CL J2032-5627: a new Southern double relic cluster observed with ASKAP

S. W. Duchesne, M. Johnston-Hollitt, I. Bartalucci +2

We present a radio and X-ray analysis of the galaxy cluster SPT-CL J2032-5627. Investigation of public data from the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP) at 943 MHz…

Low(er) frequency follow-up of 28 candidate, large-scale synchrotron sources

Torrance Hodgson, Melanie Johnston-Hollitt, Benajmin McKinley +2

We follow up on a report by Vacca et al. (2018) of 28 candidate large-scale diffuse synchrotron sources in an 8°8° area of the sky (centred at RA 5h0m0s Dec 5°48'0''). Thes…

ASKAP reveals giant radio halos in two merging SPT galaxy clusters -- Making the case for a direction-dependent pipeline --

Amanda G. Wilber, Melanie Johnston-Hollitt, Stefan W. Duchesne +4

Early science observations from the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP) have revealed clear signals of diffuse radio emission associated with two clusters detected…
