Brian Jeffs (BYU): Progress in phased array feed development for radio astronomy

Seminar: RAL Seminars | June 30 | 3:10-4 p.m. | 544 Campbell Hall

Speaker/Performer: Brian Jeffs, Brigham Young University

Sponsor: Radio Astronomy Lab

Several groups are now working to develop hardware and
algorithms for phased array feeds (PAFs) on mid to large sized dish
telescopes. The potential benefits are significant, including wide
field of view observations using a grid of simultaneously steered
beams, single dish rapid imaging, fast survey times, and new methods
for interference mitigation. However, there are some...   More >
