Estimating fast transient detection pipeline efficiencies at UTMOST via real-time injection of mock FRBs
Vivek Gupta, Chris Flynn, Wael Farah +7
Dedicated surveys using different detection pipelines are being carried out at multiple observatories to find more Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs). Understanding the efficiency of detecti…
The MeerKAT Telescope as a Pulsar Facility: System verification and early science results from MeerTime
M. Bailes, A. Jameson, F. Abbate +72
We describe system verification tests and early science results from the pulsar processor (PTUSE) developed for the newly-commissioned 64-dish SARAO MeerKAT radio telescope in Sout…
An ultra-wide bandwidth (704 to 4032 MHz) receiver for the Parkes radio telescope
G. Hobbs, R. N. Manchester, A. Dunning +69
We describe an ultra-wide-bandwidth, low-frequency receiver ("UWL") recently installed on the Parkes radio telescope. The receiver system provides continuous frequency coverage fro…
The UTMOST Survey for Magnetars, Intermittent pulsars, RRATs and FRBs I: System description and overview
V. Venkatraman Krishnan, C. Flynn, W. Farah +22
We describe the ongoing `Survey for Magnetars, Intermittent pulsars, Rotating radio transients and Fast radio bursts' (SMIRF), performed using the newly refurbished UTMOST telescop…
The High Time Resolution Universe survey XIV: Discovery of 23 pulsars through GPU-accelerated reprocessing
V. Morello, E. D. Barr, S. Cooper +21
We have performed a new search for radio pulsars in archival data of the intermediate and high Galactic latitude parts of the Southern High Time Resolution Universe pulsar survey.…
The Breakthrough Listen Search for Intelligent Life: Wide-bandwidth Digital Instrumentation for the CSIRO Parkes 64-m Telescope
Danny C. Price, David H. E. MacMahon, Matt Lebofsky +22
Breakthrough Listen is a ten-year initiative to search for signatures of technologies created by extraterrestrial civilizations at radio and optical wavelengths. Here, we detail th…
MeerTime - the MeerKAT Key Science Program on Pulsar Timing
M. Bailes, E. Barr, N. D. R. Bhat +28
The MeerKAT telescope represents an outstanding opportunity for radio pulsar timing science with its unique combination of a large collecting area and aperture efficiency (effectiv…
The UTMOST: A hybrid digital signal processor transforms the MOST
M. Bailes, A. Jameson, C. Flynn +20
The Molonglo Observatory Synthesis Telescope (MOST) is an 18,000 square meter radio telescope situated some 40 km from the city of Canberra, Australia. Its operating band (820-850…
The SUrvey for Pulsars and Extragalactic Radio Bursts I: Survey Description and Overview
E. F. Keane, E. D. Barr, A. Jameson +19
We describe the Survey for Pulsars and Extragalactic Radio Bursts (SUPERB), an ongoing pulsar and fast transient survey using the Parkes radio telescope. SUPERB involves real-time…
HIPSR: A Digital Signal Processor for the Parkes 21-cm Multibeam Receiver
D. C. Price, L. Staveley-Smith, M. Bailes +5
HIPSR (HI-Pulsar) is a digital signal processing system for the Parkes 21-cm Multibeam Receiver that provides larger instantaneous bandwidth, increased dynamic range, and more sign…
Identifying the source of perytons at the Parkes radio telescope
E. Petroff, E. F. Keane, E. D. Barr +12
"Perytons" are millisecond-duration transients of terrestrial origin, whose frequency-swept emission mimics the dispersion of an astrophysical pulse that has propagated through ten…
Digital Signal Processing using Stream High Performance Computing: A 512-input Broadband Correlator for Radio Astronomy
J. Kocz, L. J Greenhill, B. R. Barsdell +16
A "large-N" correlator that makes use of Field Programmable Gate Arrays and Graphics Processing Units has been deployed as the digital signal processing system for the Long Wavelen…
The Parkes Pulsar Timing Array Project
R. N. Manchester, G. Hobbs, M. Bailes +28
A "pulsar timing array" (PTA), in which observations of a large sample of pulsars spread across the celestial sphere are combined, allows investigation of "global" phenomena such a…
The Parkes Observatory Pulsar Data Archive
G. Hobbs, D. Miller, R. N. Manchester +39
The Parkes pulsar data archive currently provides access to 144044 data files obtained from observations carried out at the Parkes observatory since the year 1991. Around 10^5 file…
