Gain Stabilization for Radio Intensity Mapping using a Continuous-Wave Reference Signal
Alexander W. Pollak, Christian M. Holler, Michael E. Jones +1
Stabilizing the gain of a radio astronomy receiver is of great importance for sensitive radio intensity mapping. In this paper we discuss a stabilization method using a continuous-…
The C-Band All-Sky Survey (C-BASS): Design and capabilities
Michael E. Jones, Angela C. Taylor, Moumita Aich +23
The C-Band All-Sky Survey (C-BASS) is an all-sky full-polarisation survey at a frequency of 5 GHz, designed to provide complementary data to the all-sky surveys of WMAP and Planck,…
The QUIET Instrument
QUIET Collaboration, C. Bischoff, A. Brizius +52
The Q/U Imaging ExperimenT (QUIET) is designed to measure polarization in the Cosmic Microwave Background, targeting the imprint of inflationary gravitational waves at large angula…
A 2-20 GHz Analog Lag-Correlator for Radio Interferometry
C. M. Holler, M. E. Jones, A. C. Taylor +2
We present the design and testing of a 2-20 GHz continuum band analog lag correlator with 16 frequency channels for astronomical interferometry. The correlator has been designed fo…
A blind detection of a large, complex, Sunyaev--Zel'dovich structure
AMI Consortium, :, T. W. Shimwell +58
We present an interesting Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) detection in the first of the Arcminute Microkelvin Imager (AMI) 'blind', degree-square fields to have been observed down to our t…
The C-Band All-Sky Survey: Instrument design, status, and first-look data
Oliver G. King, Charles Copley, Rod Davies +13
The C-Band All-Sky Survey (C-BASS) aims to produce sensitive, all-sky maps of diffuse Galactic emission at 5 GHz in total intensity and linear polarization. These maps will be used…
The Arcminute Microkelvin Imager
AMI Consortium, :, J. T. L. Zwart +57
The Arcminute Microkelvin Imager is a pair of interferometer arrays operating with six frequency channels spanning 13.9-18.2 GHz, with very high sensitivity to angular scales 30''-…
Implementation of an Optimised Cassegrain System for Radio Telescopes
C. M. Holler, R. E. Hills, M. E. Jones +2
We present the antenna design for a radio interferometer, the Arcminute Microkelvin Imager, together with its beam pattern measurement. Our aim was to develop a low-cost system wit…
A 6-12 GHz Analogue Lag-Correlator for Radio Interferometry
Christian M. Holler, Tak Kaneko, Michael E. Jones +2
Aims: We describe a 6-12 GHz analogue correlator that has been developed for use in radio interferometers. Methods: We use a lag-correlator technique to synthesis eight complex spe…
High-significance Sunyaev-Zel'dovich measurement: Abell 1914 seen with the Arcminute Microkelvin Imager
AMI Collaboration, R. Barker, P. Biddulph +47
We report the first detection of a Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (S-Z) decrement with the Arcminute Microkelvin Imager (AMI). We have made commissioning observations towards the cluster A1914…
