The Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array Sky Survey (VLASS). Science case and survey design
M. Lacy, S. A. Baum, C. J. Chandler +75
The Very Large Array Sky Survey (VLASS) is a synoptic, all-sky radio sky survey with a unique combination of high angular resolution (2.5"), sensitivity (a 1 goal of 70…
Science Pipelines for the Square Kilometre Array
Jamie Farnes, Ben Mort, Fred Dulwich +2
The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) will be both the largest radio telescope ever constructed and the largest Big Data project in the known Universe. The first phase of the project wi…
Source Finding in Linear Polarization for LOFAR, and SKA Predecessor Surveys, using Faraday Moments
J. S. Farnes, G. Heald, H. Junklewitz +10
The optimal source-finding strategy for linear polarization data is an unsolved problem, with many inhibitive factors imposed by the technically-challenging nature of polarization…
The challenges of low-frequency radio polarimetry: lessons from the Murchison Widefield Array
Emil Lenc, C. S. Anderson, N. Barry +26
We present techniques developed to calibrate and correct Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) low frequency (72-300 MHz) radio observations for polarimetry. The extremely wide field-of-…
Comparison of algorithms for determination of rotation measure and Faraday structure I. 1100 - 1400 MHz
X. H. Sun, L. Rudnick, Takuya Akahori +14
(abridged) We run a Faraday structure determination data challenge to benchmark the currently available algorithms including Faraday synthesis (previously called RM synthesis in th…
Constraining Direction-Dependent Instrumental Polarisation: A New Technique for Polarisation Angle Calibration
J. S. Farnes
Direction-dependent instrumental polarisation introduces wide-field polarimetric aberrations and limits the dynamic range of low-frequency interferometric images. We therefore prov…
Spectropolarimetry with the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope at 610 MHz: a case study of two Southern Compact Group fields
J. S. Farnes, D. A. Green, N. G. Kantharia
We present 610 MHz spectropolarimetric images from the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT). We discuss the properties of the GMRT's full-polarisation mode in detail and provide…
Probing Magnetic Fields using the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope
J. S. Farnes, D. A. Green, N. G. Kantharia
We present the first spectropolarimetric radio observations that apply Rotation Measure (RM) Synthesis to interferometric data from the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) at 61…
