Dynamical Imaging with Interferometry

Michael D. Johnson, Katherine L. Bouman, Lindy Blackburn +7

By linking widely separated radio dishes, the technique of very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) can greatly enhance angular resolution in radio astronomy. However, at any given…

Reconstructing Video from Interferometric Measurements of Time-Varying Sources

Katherine L. Bouman, Michael D. Johnson, Adrian V. Dalca +4

Very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) makes it possible to recover images of astronomical sources with extremely high angular resolution. Most recently, the Event Horizon Telesc…

Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: Cross-Correlation Redshifts - Methods and Systematics Characterization

M. Gatti, P. Vielzeuf, C. Davis +104

We use numerical simulations to characterize the performance of a clustering-based method to calibrate photometric redshift biases. In particular, we cross-correlate the weak lensi…

Quantifying Intrinsic Variability of Sagittarius A* using Closure Phase Measurements of the Event Horizon Telescope

Freek Roelofs, Michael D. Johnson, Hotaka Shiokawa +2

General relativistic magnetohydrodynamic (GRMHD) simulations of accretion disks and jets associated with supermassive black holes show variability on a wide range of timescales. On…

Locating the intense interstellar scattering towards the inner Galaxy

J. Dexter, A. Deller, G. C. Bower +9

We use VLBA+VLA observations to measure the sizes of the scatter-broadened images of 6 of the most heavily scattered known pulsars: 3 within the Galactic Centre (GC) and 3 elsewher…
