Science with the Murchison Widefield Array: Phase I Results and Phase II Opportunities
A. P. Beardsley, M. Johnston-Hollitt, C. M. Trott +56
The Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) is an open access telescope dedicated to studying the low frequency (80300 MHz) southern sky. Since beginning operations in mid 2013, the MWA…
A VOEvent based automatic trigger system for the Murchison Widefield Array
P. J. Hancock, G. E. Anderson, A. Williams +22
The Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) is an electronically steered low frequency (\,MHz) radio interferometer, with a `slew' time less than 8seconds. Low frequency (\…
The Phase II Murchison Widefield Array: Design Overview
Randall B. Wayth, Steven J. Tingay, Cathryn M. Trott +26
We describe the motivation and design details of the "Phase II" upgrade of the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) radio telescope. The expansion doubles to 256 the number of antenna t…
In situ measurement of MWA primary beam variation using ORBCOMM
J. L. B. Line, B. McKinley, J. Rasti +21
We provide the first in situ measurements of antenna element (tile) beam shapes of the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA), a low radio-frequency interferometer and an SKA precursor. M…
Observations of Low-Frequency Radio Emission from Millisecond Pulsars and Multipath Propagation in the Interstellar Medium
N. D. R. Bhat, S. E. Tremblay, F. Kirsten +23
Studying the gravitational-wave sky with pulsar timing arrays (PTAs) is a key science goal for the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) and its pathfinder telescopes. With current PTAs rea…
Comparing Redundant and Sky Model Based Interferometric Calibration: A First Look with Phase II of the MWA
W. Li, J. C. Pober, B. J. Hazelton +53
Interferometric arrays seeking to measure the 21 cm signal from the Epoch of Reionization must contend with overwhelmingly bright emission from foreground sources. Accurate recover…
A Serendipitous MWA Search for Narrow-band and Broad-band Low Frequency Radio Transmissions from 1I/2017 U1 'Oumuamua
S. J. Tingay, D. L. Kaplan, E. Lenc +18
We examine data from the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) in the frequency range 72 -- 102 MHz for a field-of-view that serendipitously contained the interstellar object 'Oumuamua o…
The Engineering Development Array: A low frequency radio telescope utilising SKA precursor technology
Randall Wayth, Marcin Sokolowski, Tom Booler +21
We describe the design and performance of the Engineering Development Array (EDA), which is a low frequency radio telescope comprising 256 dual-polarisation dipole antennas working…
