A survey for transients and variables with the Murchison Widefield Array 32-tile prototype at 154 MHz

M. E. Bell, T. Murphy, D. L. Kaplan +55

We present a search for transient and variable radio sources at 154 MHz with the Murchison Widefield Array 32-tile prototype. Fifty-one images were obtained that cover a field of v…

What Next-Generation 21 cm Power Spectrum Measurements Can Teach Us About the Epoch of Reionization

Jonathan C. Pober, Adrian Liu, Joshua S. Dillon +12

A number of experiments are currently working towards a measurement of the 21 cm signal from the Epoch of Reionization. Whether or not these experiments deliver a detection of cosm…

A study of fundamental limitations to statistical detection of redshifted HI from the epoch of reionization

Nithyanandan Thyagarajan, N. Udaya Shankar, Ravi Subrahmanyan +46

In this paper we explore for the first time the relative magnitudes of three fundamental sources of uncertainty, namely, foreground contamination, thermal noise and sample variance…

The giant lobes of Centaurus A observed at 118 MHz with the Murchison Widefield Array

B. McKinley, F. Briggs, B. M. Gaensler +50

We present new wide-field observations of Centaurus A (Cen A) and the surrounding region at 118 MHz with the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) 32-tile prototype, with which we invest…

On the detection and tracking of space debris using the Murchison Widefield Array. I. Simulations and test observations demonstrate feasibility

S. J. Tingay, D. L. Kaplan, B. McKinley +60

The Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) is a new low frequency interferomeric radio telescope. The MWA is the low frequency precursor to the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) and is the fir…

A 189 MHz, 2400 square degree polarization survey with the Murchison Widefield Array 32-element prototype

G. Bernardi, L. J. Greenhill, D. A. Mitchell +50

We present a Stokes I, Q and U survey at 189 MHz with the Murchison Widefield Array 32-element prototype covering 2400 square degrees. The survey has a 15.6 arcmin angular resoluti…
