Radar Polarimetry in Glaciology: Theory, Measurement Techniques, and Scientific Applications for Investigating the Anisotropy of Ice Masses

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 63, Issue 4, December 2025.
Abstract Dielectric anisotropy in ice alters the propagation of polarized radio waves, so polarimetric radar sounding can be used to survey anisotropic properties of ice masses. Ice anisotropy is either intrinsic, associated with ice‐crystal orientation fabric (COF), or extrinsic, associated with material heterogeneity, such as bubbles, fractures, and ...

The Extragalactic Radio Source Background [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1990
The background of discrete extragalactic radio sources is described from the point of view of its simplest properties: surface density and surface distribution. New considerations, particularly with regard to the latter, open the possibility of detecting Universal structure on many angular scales.

A Comparative Study of VTEC Estimates Derived From S/X VLBI and VGOS Observations

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract The ionosphere, which strongly varies in time and space, is one of the largest error sources for microwave measurements, if not accounted for accurately. Especially for single‐frequency observations, precise ionospheric models are needed to correct for the ionospheric delays. This study explores the utility of Very Long Baseline Interferometry

HEAD IN THE STARS, FEET ON THE GROUND: Scale and Astronomy Initiatives in Southern Africa

open access: yesCultural Anthropology, Volume 40, Issue 4, Page 571-596, November 2025.
ABSTRACT This article explores the evolution of radio astronomy in South Africa and Madagascar, focusing on how “scale” functions as both a way of understanding the world and marking differences in existence. In outer space research, the ground is crucial but often overlooked.

An Extragalactic Widefield Search for Technosignatures with the Murchison Widefield Array

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
It is common for surveys that are designed to find artificial signals generated by distant civilizations to focus on galactic sources. Recently, researchers have started focusing on searching for all other sources within the field observed, including the

An Updated Repository of Sub-mJy Extragalactic Source-Count Measurements in the Radio Domain

open access: yesGalaxies
We present an updated repository of sub-mJy extragalactic radio source counts between 150 MHz and 10 GHz, incorporating recent advances in radio surveys and observational techniques. By compiling and refining previous datasets, we provide a comprehensive

Deep Space Network Radio Science and Ground‐Based Planetary Radar in the Next Decade

open access: yesRadio Science, Volume 60, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract The Deep Space Network (DSN) has been a core operational element of NASA's crewed and robotic exploration of the Solar System since the early 1960s. The primary role of the DSN has been to acquire telemetry and navigation data, but over the years, its radiometric and radar capabilities have expanded to form a system for obtaining unique ...

Deep Synoptic Array Science: Implications of Faraday Rotation Measures of Fast Radio Bursts Localized to Host Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Faraday rotation measures (RMs) of fast radio bursts (FRBs) offer the prospect of directly measuring extragalactic magnetic fields. We present an analysis of the RMs of 10 as yet nonrepeating FRBs detected and localized to host galaxies with robust ...

Isolated Neutron Stars as Science Validation for XMM2ATHENA: Ensuring Robust Data for Future X‐Ray Astronomy

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 346, Issue 3-4, March-May 2025.
ABSTRACT The discovery of radio‐quiet, x‐ray thermally emitting isolated neutron stars (XINSs) in the ROSAT All‐Sky Survey revealed a previously overlooked component of the neutron star population. Advancements in x‐ray instrumentation and the availability of deep, wide‐area optical surveys now enable us to explore XINSs at fainter x‐ray fluxes and ...

SOURCES WITH LOW-FREQUENCY STEEPNESS SPECTRUM CONCERNING THE UNIFIED MODEL

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2012
Based on data of the data of the Grakovo catalogue of the extragalactic sources, detected at the decametre band with the UTR-2 radio telescope , it was established, that properties of radio sources with lowfrequency steepness of spectrum are in ...
