Commensal, Multi-user Observations with an Ethernet-based Jansky Very Large Array
Jack Hickish, Tony Beasley, Geoff Bower +12
Over the last decade, the continuing decline in the cost of digital computing technology has brought about a dramatic transformation in how digital instrumentation for radio astron…
The Repeating Fast Radio Burst FRB 121102 as Seen on Milliarcsecond Angular Scales
B. Marcote, Z. Paragi, J. W. T. Hessels +26
The millisecond-duration radio flashes known as Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) represent an enigmatic astrophysical phenomenon. Recently, the sub-arcsecond localization (~ 100mas precisi…
MANTIS: The Mid-Frequency Aperture Array Transient and Intensity-Mapping System
W. A. van Cappellen, M. Santos, J. P. Macquart +14
The objective of this paper is to present the main characteristics of a wide-field MFAA precursor that we envisage to be built at the SKA site in South Africa. Known as MANTIS (the…
A Decade of Developing Radio-Astronomy Instrumentation using CASPER Open-Source Technology
Jack Hickish, Zuhra Abdurashidova, Zaki Ali +33
The Collaboration for Astronomy Signal Processing and Electronics Research (CASPER) has been working for a decade to reduce the time and cost of designing, building and deploying n…
A Millisecond Interferometric Search for Fast Radio Bursts with the Very Large Array
Casey J. Law, Geoffrey C. Bower, Sarah Burke-Spolaor +7
We report on the first millisecond timescale radio interferometric search for the new class of transient known as fast radio bursts (FRBs). We used the Very Large Array (VLA) for a…
Searching for Extraterrestrial Intelligence with the Square Kilometre Array
Andrew P. V. Siemion, James Benford, Jin Cheng-Jin +18
The vast collecting area of the Square Kilometre Array (SKA), harnessed by sensitive receivers, flexible digital electronics and increased computational capacity, could permit the…
