Information on resource 'Apertif Time Domain Data Release'

Services defined within this resource descriptor

• Apertif Time Domain FRB detection cone search (DR2)

  This is the final, full data release from the Apertif Radio Transient System (ARTS), a supercomputing radio-telescope instrument that performed real-time FRB detection and localisation on the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope (WSRT) interferometer. It reached coherent-addition sensitivity over the entire field of the view of the primary- dish beam. The Apertif FRB survey (ALERT) detected 24 new FRBs, and interferometrically localised each of these to 0.4−10 sq. arcmin. All detections are broad band and very narrow, of order 1 ms duration, with high dispersion measures. Please note that the ARTS DR2 collection includes all data from the DR1 collection.
