The CHIME/FRB Outriggers: Commissioning the Hat Creek Outrigger and an Updated Calibration Scheme for Mitigating RFI
Mattias Lazda, Nina V. Gusinskaia, Gurman Sachdeva +25
This work presents commissioning of the Hat Creek Outrigger (HCO), a dual-polarization 256-element radio interferometer that is part of the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Expe…
Overview of the Canadian Hydrogen Observatory and Radio Transient Detector (CHORD) Project
The CHORD Collaboration, Kevin Bandura, Leonid Belostotski +49
The Canadian Hydrogen Observatory and Radio-transient Detector (CHORD) is a next-generation wideband radio interferometer currently being constructed and commissioned at the Domini…
Architecture and Validation of the CRS F-Engine for the CHORD Radio Telescope
Ian Hendricksen, Jean-François Cliche, Matt Dobbs +1
We introduce the design of the t0.technology Control and Readout System (CRS) F-Engine that will be used for the Canadian Hydrogen Observatory and Radio transient Detector (CHORD),…
Using the antenna impedance to estimate soil electrical parameters for the MIST global 21-cm experiment
Cinthia Altamirano, Ricardo Bustos, Raul A. Monsalve +11
Radio experiments trying to detect the global ~cm signal from the early Universe are very sensitive to the electrical properties of their environment. For ground-based experime…
CHIME/FRB Outriggers: KKO Station System and Commissioning Results
Adam E. Lanman, Shion Andrew, Mattias Lazda +43
Localizing fast radio bursts (FRBs) to their host galaxies is an essential step to better understanding their origins and using them as cosmic probes. The CHIME/FRB Outrigger progr…
Simulating the Detection of the Global 21 cm Signal with MIST for Different Models of the Soil and Beam Directivity
Raul A. Monsalve, Christian H. Bye, Jonathan L. Sievers +10
The Mapper of the IGM Spin Temperature (MIST) is a new ground-based, single-antenna, radio experiment attempting to detect the global 21 cm signal from the Dark Ages and Cosmic Daw…
