Issue Date: | 2019 | Journal: | PUBLICATIONS OF THE ASTRONOMICAL SOCIETY OF AUSTRALIA | Number: | 36 | First Page: | e037 | Abstract: | A new era in radio astronomy will begin with the upcoming large-scale surveys planned at the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP). ASKAP started its Early Science programme in October 2017 and several target fields were observed during the array commissioning phase. The Suc(corpio) field was the first observed in the Galactic Plane in Band 1 (792-1 032 MHz) using 15 commissioned antennas. The achieved sensitivity and large field of view already allow to discover new sources and survey thousands of existing ones with improved precision with respect to previous surveys. Data analysis is currently ongoing to deliver the first source catalogue. Given the increased scale of the data, source extraction and characterisation, even in this Early Science phase, have to be carried out in a mostly automated way. This process presents significant challenges due to the presence of extended objects and diffuse emission close to the Galactic Plane.... | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12386/29875 | URL: | https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/publications-of-the-astronomical-society-of-australia/article/caesar-source-finder-recent-developments-and-testing/DC9883C05E033D27CC05EE86AFC4B17F | ISSN: | 1448-6083 | DOI: | 10.1017/pasa.2019.29 | Bibcode ADS: | 2019PASA...36...37R | Fulltext: | open |
