Tied-array beam flatfielding
Dirk Kuiper, Cees Bassa, Ziggy Pleunis +1
Context. Multi-element phased-array radio telescopes use digital beamforming to widen their field-of-view with numerous tied-array beams (TABs). These beams share bandpass variatio…
CHIME/Slow overview and pilot survey: A new backend to search for second-duration radio transients with the CHIME telescope
Sujay Mate, Kevin Luke, Yash Bhusare +23
We present an overview of CHIME/Slow, a real-time transient search backend under development to search for second-duration radio transients using the CHIME telescope, and results o…
frb-voe: A Real-time Virtual Observatory Event Alert Service for Fast Radio Bursts
Thomas C. Abbott, Andrew V. Zwaniga, Charanjot Brar +12
We present frb-voe, a publicly available software package that enables radio observatories to broadcast fast radio burst (FRB) alerts to subscribers through low-latency virtual obs…
CHIME/FRB Outriggers: KKO Station System and Commissioning Results
Adam E. Lanman, Shion Andrew, Mattias Lazda +43
Localizing fast radio bursts (FRBs) to their host galaxies is an essential step to better understanding their origins and using them as cosmic probes. The CHIME/FRB Outrigger progr…
An Injection System for the CHIME/FRB Experiment
Marcus Merryfield, S. P. Tendulkar, Kaitlyn Shin +19
Dedicated surveys searching for Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) are subject to selection effects which bias the observed population of events. Software injection systems are one method of…
Localizing FRBs through VLBI with the Algonquin Radio Observatory 10-m Telescope
Tomas Cassanelli, Calvin Leung, Mubdi Rahman +38
The CHIME/FRB experiment has detected thousands of Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) due to its sensitivity and wide field of view; however, its low angular resolution prevents it from loca…
The CHIME Fast Radio Burst Project: System Overview
FRB Collaboration, M. Amiri, K. Bandura +49
The Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME) is a novel transit radio telescope operating across the 400-800-MHz band. CHIME is comprised of four 20-m x 100-m semi-cy…
Enabling pulsar and fast transient searches using coherent dedispersion
C. G. Bassa, Z. Pleunis, J. W. T. Hessels
We present an implementation of the coherent dedispersion algorithm capable of dedispersing high-time-resolution radio observations to many different dispersion measures (DMs). Thi…
