The Arecibo Legacy Fast ALFA Survey: I. Science Goals, Survey Design and Strategy
Riccardo Giovanelli, Martha P. Haynes, Brian R. Kent
The recently initiated Arecibo Legacy Fast ALFA (ALFALFA) survey aims to map 7000 square degrees of the high galactic latitude sky visible from Arecibo, providing a HI line spectra…
The Arecibo Legacy Fast ALFA Survey: II. Results of Precursor Observations
Riccardo Giovanelli, Martha P. Haynes, Brian R. Kent +17
In preparation for the full Arecibo Legacy Fast ALFA extragalactic HI survey, precursor observations were carried out in Aug--Sep 2004 with the 7-beam Arecibo L-band feed array (AL…
Mueller Matrix Parameters for Radio Telescopes and their Observational Determination
Carl Heiles, Phil Perillat, Michael Nolan +7
Modern digital crosscorrelators permit the simultaneous measurement of all four Stokes parameters. However, the results must be calibrated to correct for the polarization transfer…
All-Stokes Parameterization of the Main Beam and First Sidelobe for the Arecibo Radio Telescope
Carl Heiles, Phil Perillat, Michael Nolan +8
We describe a scheme that characterizes the main beam and sidelobe in all Stokes parameters employing parameters that allow reconstruction of the complete beam patterns and, also,…
