Software for a Software Telescope: an LWA1 Update

Thursday April 11, 2013
2:00 pm


 Presenter:  Jayce Dowell (UNM)
 Series:  Center for Astrophysics Research and Technologies Seminar Series
 Abstract:  The first station of the Long Wavelength Array, LWA1, reached its initial operational capabilities almost one year ago.  I will discuss the software used behind the scenes in the running of this software telescope.  In particular, I will discuss the recent work to improve the delay calibration and sensitivity.   In addition to the telescope and user software, I will provide an update of recent progress on various science projects, including the the multi-frequency all-sky survey that is currently underway.
