A Fast Radio Burst Backend for the Tianlai Dish Pathfinder Array
نویسندگان
چکیده
Abstract The Tianlai Dish Pathfinder Array is a radio interferometer array consisting of 16 six-meter dish antennas. original digital backend integration time at the seconds level, designed for H i intensity mapping experiment. A new with millisecond response added to enable it search fast burst during its observations. design and calibration this backend, real pipeline are described in paper. It capable forming beams each linear polarization, covering an area 19.6 square degrees. searching for, recording classifying FRBs automatically time. In commissioning, we succeeded capturing signal pulses from pulsars PSR B0329+54 B2021+51.

A Multithreaded Compiler Backend for High-level Array Programming
Whenever large homogeneous data structures need to be processed in a non-trivial way, e.g. in computational sciences, image processing, or system simulation, high-level array programming in the style of APL offers a far more concise and abstract approach than traditional scalar languages such as C/C++ or FORTRAN-77. The same sort of applications often can also be characterized as performance cr...
متن کاملTDL-based Wideband Beamforming for Radio Sources Close to the Array Endfire
Uniform linear array (ULA)-based tapped-delay line (TDL) structure has good performance metrics when the signal sources are located at the middle angles. It offers poor performance when the signal sources are close to the array endfire. In this paper, a new approach is proposed which offers higher performance and desired beamforming on TDL structure when the wideband uncorrelated radio sources ...
متن کاملThe magnetic field and turbulence of the cosmic web measured using a brilliant fast radio burst.
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are millisecond-duration events thought to originate beyond the Milky Way galaxy. Uncertainty surrounding the burst sources, and their propagation through intervening plasma, has limited their use as cosmological probes. We report on a mildly dispersed (dispersion measure 266.5 ± 0.1 parsecs per cubic centimeter), exceptionally intense (120 ± 30 janskys), linearly polar...
متن کاملCrosscorrelation Spectropolarimetry in Single-dish Radio Astronomy
Modern digital correlators permit the simultaneous measurement of all four Stokes parameters using auto and crosscorrelation. We briefly outline the fundamental requirements and some practical details of performing such measurements and refer to two additional papers that provide overview and cover calibration issues in detail. Subject headings: polarization — instrumentation: polarimeters — te...
متن کاملFast Algorithms for Burst Detection
Events occur in every aspect of our lives. An unexpectedly large number of events occurring within some certain measurement (e.g. within some time duration or a spatial region) is called a burst, suggesting unusual behaviors or activities. Bursts come up in many natural and social processes. It is a challenging task to monitor the occurrence of bursts whose lasting duration is unknown in a fast...
