Mining the time axis with TRON - III. Discovery of a nulling pulsar towards the SMC with MeerKAT

T. Blecher, M. Geyer, O. M. Smirnov +21

We report on the discovery of a nulling pulsar, PSR J00527551, in archival MeerKAT L-band observations of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). The discovery was made using the imag…

Optical Counterparts of MeerKLASS L-band and UHF-band surveys

M. Klein, S. Mangla, J. Mohr +7

Context: Wide-area radio continuum surveys require reliable optical and infrared counterpart identification, but high optical source densities and extended or multi-component radio…

Searching for Extraterrestrial Intelligence with the SKA

Chenoa D. Tremblay, Alex Andersson, Joe Bright +19

The search for technosignatures (also known as the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence or SETI) depends critically on our ability to distinguish artificial signals from the ri…

Fast Simultaneous Surveys with On-the-Fly Mapping

Suman Chatterjee, Sarvesh Mangla, Sourabh Paul +10

The SKAO is a next-generation radio telescope that will transform our understanding of the formation and evolution of radio galaxies, quasars, transients, and other cosmic sources.…

AGN Jets from Formation to Dissipation

Anne-Kathrin Baczko, A. -K. Baczko, Eleni Vardoulaki +27

Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) are among the most energetic phenomena in the Universe, capable of launching powerful relativistic jets that extend from sub-parsec to megaparsec scale…

Tracing Large-scale Structure with the MeerKLASS On-the-Fly Survey: Angular Clustering of Radio Sources at 816 MHz

Sourabh Paul, Suman Chatterjee, Keith Grainge +8

We present the first measurement of the angular two-point correlation function \(w(θ)\) of radio sources from the MeerKAT Large Area Synoptic Survey (MeerKLASS) UHF on-the-fly (OTF…

A direction-dependent framework for visibility plane mosaicing and primary beam correction

Keegan S. Trehaeven, Cyril Tasse, Oleg Smirnov +1

With the increasing sensitivity of modern radio interferometers, it has become important to image objects larger than the field of view while optimising sensitivity and image fidel…
