Evaluating a strategy for measuring deformations of the primary reflector of the Green Bank telescope using a terrestrial laser scanner
Pedro Salas, Paul Marganian, Joe Brandt +11
Astronomical observations in the molecule rich 3 mm window using large reflector antennas provide a unique view of the Universe. To efficiently carry out these observations gravita…
Green Bank Telescope: Overview and analysis of metrology systems and pointing performance
E. White, F. D. Ghigo, R. M. Prestage +7
With a 100mx110m off-axis paraboloid dish, the Green Bank Telescope (GBT) is the largest fully steerable radio telescope on Earth. A major challenge facing large ground-based radio…
The Breakthrough Listen Search for Intelligent Life: A Wideband Data Recorder System for the Robert C. Byrd Green Bank Telescope
David H. E. MacMahon, Danny C. Price, Matthew Lebofsky +18
The Breakthrough Listen Initiative is undertaking a comprehensive search for radio and optical signatures from extraterrestrial civilizations. An integral component of the project…
Measuring and Correcting Wind-Induced Pointing Errors of the Green Bank Telescope Using an Optical Quadrant Detector
Paul Ries, Todd R. Hunter, Kim T. Constantikes +6
Wind-induced pointing errors are a serious concern for large-aperture high-frequency radio telescopes. In this paper, we describe the implementation of an optical quadrant detector…
