First Season MWA EoR Power Spectrum Results at Redshift 7

A. P. Beardsley, B. J. Hazelton, I. S. Sullivan +63

The Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) has collected hundreds of hours of Epoch of Reionization (EoR) data and now faces the challenge of overcoming foreground and systematic contamin…

A High Reliability Survey of Discrete Epoch of Reionization Foreground Sources in the MWA EoR0 Field

P. A. Carroll, J. Line, M. F. Morales +61

Detection of the Epoch of Reionization HI signal requires a precise understanding of the intervening galaxies and AGN, both for instrumental calibration and foreground removal. We…

Quantifying ionospheric effects on time-domain astrophysics with the Murchison Widefield Array

Shyeh Tjing Loi, Tara Murphy, Martin E. Bell +39

Refraction and diffraction of incoming radio waves by the ionosphere induce time variability in the angular positions, peak amplitudes and shapes of radio sources, potentially comp…

Ionospheric modelling using GPS to calibrate the MWA. 1: Comparison of first order ionospheric effects between GPS models and MWA observations

B. S. Arora, J. Morgan, S. M. Ord +56

We compare first order (refractive) ionospheric effects seen by the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) with the ionosphere as inferred from Global Positioning System (GPS) data. The f…
