Single Dish Polarization Calibration
Using the formalism of Hamaker et al. (1996), I derive a method for the polarization calibration of observations made with a single radio telescope. This method is particularly appropriate for observations of pulsars, where the sign and magnitude of the circular polarization are useful for understanding the emission processes at work. I apply the method to observations of PSR J1359–6038 made us...
متن کاملSingle - dish monitoring of circumstellar water masers
We present an overview of the long-term H 2 O maser monitoring program of a sample of late-type stars, carried out with the Me-dicina 32-m and Effelsberg 100-m telescopes, and describe the results in some detail. The role the SRT could play in this program is outlined.
متن کاملMethanol in protostellar outflows Single - dish and
We report high-resolution mapping observations of the 2k–1k, 3k–2k, and 5k–4k thermal lines of CH3OH toward the young bipolar outflow driven by the Class 0 object NGC 1333/IRAS 2. Only weak emission has been detected towards the position of the central object, while strong methanol lines have been observed towards the endpoints of the outflow lobes, where the CH3OH abundance is enhanced by a fa...
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 کاملShort-Spacings Correction from the Single-Dish Perspective
While, in general, interferometers provide high spatial resolution for imaging small-scale structure (corresponding to high spatial frequencies in the Fourier plane), single-dishes can be used to image the largest spatial scales (corresponding to the lowest spatial frequencies), including the total power (corresponding to zero spatial frequency). For many astrophysical studies, it is essential ...
