The Lunar Farside Transients and Technology Telescope (LFT3) Mission
David R. DeBoer, Charlie K. Ashe, Owen A. Johnson +12
We present here an overview of the Lunar Farside Transients and Technology Telescope (LFT3) mission to take advantage of the extremely clear radio frequency environment on the luna…
Modelling Radio Frequency Interference on the Lunar Farside
Charlie K. Ashe, Ella J. Marshall, Evan F. Keane +3
Technological progress is a double-edged sword in the world of radio astronomy: improvements in antennas, receivers, and digital backends increase sensitivity, but rapid growth in…
Characterising the response of an International LOFAR Station
Letizia Vincetti, Sai C. Susarla, Owen A. Johnson +7
Phased-array radio interferometers with fixed antennas are a highly scalable design which can achieve a large gain. However they are complex systems and challenging to calibrate. H…
Searching for Extraterrestrial Intelligence with the SKA
Chenoa D. Tremblay, Alex Andersson, Joe Bright +19
The search for technosignatures (also known as the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence or SETI) depends critically on our ability to distinguish artificial signals from the ri…
Pulsar timing solutions for 17 pulsars at 150 MHz from the Irish LOFAR station
D. J. McKenna, E. F. Keane, P. T. Gallagher +1
Pulsar timing is a foundational part of pulsar research to triage the most interesting systems and to characterise properties (rotational or otherwise) of the population of these e…
FRB Searches with the Irish LOFAR Station
D. J. McKenna, E. F. Keane
Here we report null results in the search for radio emission below ~MHz from six known fast radio burst sources. The observations reported here were taken using the Irish LOFA…
