Quantifying ionospheric effects on time-domain astrophysics with the Murchison Widefield Array

Shyeh Tjing Loi, Tara Murphy, Martin E. Bell +39

Refraction and diffraction of incoming radio waves by the ionosphere induce time variability in the angular positions, peak amplitudes and shapes of radio sources, potentially comp…

Ionospheric modelling using GPS to calibrate the MWA. 1: Comparison of first order ionospheric effects between GPS models and MWA observations

B. S. Arora, J. Morgan, S. M. Ord +56

We compare first order (refractive) ionospheric effects seen by the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) with the ionosphere as inferred from Global Positioning System (GPS) data. The f…

Power spectrum analysis of ionospheric fluctuations with the Murchison Widefield Array

Shyeh Tjing Loi, Cathryn M. Trott, Tara Murphy +45

Low-frequency, wide field-of-view (FoV) radio telescopes such as the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) enable the ionosphere to be sampled at high spatial completeness. We present th…

GLEAM: The GaLactic and Extragalactic All-sky MWA survey

R. B. Wayth, E. Lenc, M. E. Bell +52

GLEAM, the GaLactic and Extragalactic All-sky MWA survey, is a survey of the entire radio sky south of declination +25 deg at frequencies between 72 and 231 MHz, made with the Murc…

A Digital-Receiver for the Murchison Widefield Array

Thiagaraj Prabu, K. S. Srivani, D. Anish Roshi +55

An FPGA-based digital-receiver has been developed for a low-frequency imaging radio interferometer, the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA). The MWA, located at the Murchison Radio-ast…

Foregrounds in Wide-Field Redshifted 21 cm Power Spectra

Nithyanandan Thyagarajan, Daniel C. Jacobs, Judd D. Bowman +61

Detection of 21~cm emission of HI from the epoch of reionization, at redshifts z>6, is limited primarily by foreground emission. We investigate the signatures of wide-field measure…
