The MegaWave Radio Surveyor

T. Joseph W. Lazio, Evgenya Shkolnik, James Aguirre +40

Several Decadal-level questions in astrophysics, exoplanets, astrobiology, and cosmology can be addressed only at low radio frequencies inaccessible from Earth. The MegaWave Radio…

All-Sky Ultra-Narrowband Spectral Imaging with the OVRO-LWA: Technosignature Constraints and Axion-Like Particle Prospects

Nikita Kosogorov, Gregg Hallinan, Greg Hellbourg +46

We present an imaging-domain search for technosignatures at decametric wavelengths with the OVRO-LWA, targeting ultra-narrowband continuous-wave signals between 50 and 86 MHz. We i…

The EDGES Analysis Pipeline: Description and Validation

Steven G. Murray, Nivedita Mahesh, Akshatha K. Vydula +7

The sky-averaged redshifted 21-cm signal from Cosmic Dawn is expected to provide a unique view of the first compact objects. However, its measurement remains daunting. Difficulties…

A Commensal Radio-Only Cosmic Ray Detector at the Owens Valley Radio Observatory Long Wavelength Array

Kathryn A. Plant, Andrew Romero-Wolf, Gregg Hallinan +46

The brief (10 nanoseconds) transient radio emission from cosmic ray air showers carries key information about the energy and mass composition of high energy cosmic rays, but anthro…

The FarView Low Frequency Radio Array on the Moon's Far Side: Science and Array Architecture

Jack O. Burns, Judd Bowman, Tzu-Ching Chang +8

FarView is a proposed low frequency radio interferometer for deployment on the lunar far side, enabled by the Moon's radio quiet environment. Operating over 1-50 MHz inaccessible f…

Polarisation Performance of Offset Phase Antennas: A Study for FARSIDE

Nivedita Mahesh, Judd D Bowman, Bharat Gehlot +1

Several radio telescopes have been planned or proposed to be deployed on the Lunar farside in the coming years. These will observe the unexplored ultra-long wavelengths of the elec…

Studying Exoplanets in the Radio from the Moon

Jake D. Turner, Jack O. Burns, David Rapetti +12

Exoplanets with and without a magnetic field are predicted to form, behave, and evolve very differently. Therefore, there is great need to directly constrain these fields to holist…

EDGES-3: Instrument Design and Commissioning

Rigel C. Cappallo, Alan E. E. Rogers, Colin J. Lonsdale +10

EDGES-3 is the third iteration of the EDGES experiment, designed to measure the predicted global absorption feature in the radio spectrum produced by neutral hydrogen gas at cosmic…
