Enhancing SLMs for Sustainable Code Optimization in Radio-Astronomy

Elisa Chiarotto, Jingbo Li, P. Chris Broekema +1

Recent Large Language Models (LLMs) can produce and optimize complex code. We investigate the use of LLMs to generate and optimize code for large-scale sciences, focusing on radio…

Job-level Carbon and Water Footprint Estimation for HPC: Bias Assessment from Runtime to Full Life Cycle

Xi Chen, Chris Broekema, Rob van Nieuwpoort

High performance computing evaluation has traditionally focused on performance and energy, but these metrics alone cannot capture the sustainability cost of runtime configurations.…

Efficient Construction of Large Search Spaces for Auto-Tuning

Floris-Jan Willemsen, Rob V. van Nieuwpoort, Ben van Werkhoven

Automatic performance tuning, or auto-tuning, accelerates high-performance codes by exploring vast spaces of code variants. However, due to the large number of possible combination…

Pulsar Searches with the SKA

L. Levin, W. Armour, C. Baffa +24

The Square Kilometre Array will be an amazing instrument for pulsar astronomy. While the full SKA will be sensitive enough to detect all pulsars in the Galaxy visible from Earth, a…

Auto-Tuning Dedispersion for Many-Core Accelerators

Alessio Sclocco, Henri E. Bal, Jason Hessels +2

In this paper, we study the parallelization of the dedispersion algorithm on many-core accelerators, including GPUs from AMD and NVIDIA, and the Intel Xeon Phi. An important contri…

Real-Time Dedispersion for Fast Radio Transient Surveys, using Auto Tuning on Many-Core Accelerators

Alessio Sclocco, Joeri van Leeuwen, Henri E. Bal +1

Dedispersion, the removal of deleterious smearing of impulsive signals by the interstellar matter, is one of the most intensive processing steps in any radio survey for pulsars and…

Discovery of Carbon Radio Recombination Lines in absorption towards Cygnus~A

J. B. R. Oonk, R. J. van Weeren, F. Salgado +100

We present the first detection of carbon radio recombination line absorption along the line of sight to Cygnus A. The observations were carried out with the LOw Frequency ARray in…

Detecting cosmic rays with the LOFAR radio telescope

P. Schellart, A. Nelles, S. Buitink +102

The low frequency array (LOFAR), is the first radio telescope designed with the capability to measure radio emission from cosmic-ray induced air showers in parallel with interferom…

The brightness and spatial distributions of terrestrial radio sources

A. R. Offringa, A. G. de Bruyn, S. Zaroubi +75

Faint undetected sources of radio-frequency interference (RFI) might become visible in long radio observations when they are consistently present over time. Thereby, they might obs…
