Minimal re-computation for exploratory data analysis in astronomy [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy and Computing, 2018
We present a technique to automatically minimise the re-computation when a data processing program is iteratively changed, or added to, as is often the case in exploratory data analysis in radio astronomy. A typical example is flagging and calibration of demanding or unusual observations where visual inspection suggests improvement to the processing ...

Persistent homology in cosmic shear: Constraining parameters with topological data analysis [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2020
In recent years, cosmic shear has emerged as a powerful tool for studying the statistical distribution of matter in our Universe. Apart from the standard two-point correlation functions, several alternative methods such as peak count statistics offer ...

Data Combination: Interferometry and Single-dish Imaging in Radio Astronomy [PDF]

open access: yesPublications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2023
Modern interferometers routinely provide radio-astronomical images down to subarcsecond resolution. However, interferometers filter out spatial scales larger than those sampled by the shortest baselines, which affects the measurement of both spatial and ...

The second data release from the European Pulsar Timing Array. I. The dataset and timing analysis [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2023
Pulsar timing arrays offer a probe of the low-frequency gravitational wave spectrum (1 - 100 nanohertz), which is intimately connected to a number of markers that can uniquely trace the formation and evolution of the Universe.
