Radio Astronomical Polarimetry and Point-Source Calibration | | W. van Straten
; | | Date: |
26 Dec 2003 | | Journal: | Astrophys.J.Suppl. 152 (2004) 129-135 | | Subject: | astro-ph | | Abstract: | A mathematical framework is presented for use in the experimental determination of the polarimetric response of observatory instrumentation. Elementary principles of linear algebra are applied to model the full matrix description of the polarization measurement equation by least-squares estimation of non-linear, scalar parameters. The formalism is applied to calibrate the center element of the Parkes Multibeam receiver using observations of the millisecond pulsar, PSR J0437-4715, and the radio galaxy, 3C 218 (Hydra A). | | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/0401536 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
