Pixelization and dynamic range in radio interferometry [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2008
This study investigates some of the consequences of representing the sky by a rectangular grid of pixels on the dynamic range of images derived from radio interferometric measurements. In particular, the effects of image pixelization coupled to the CLEAN deconvolution representation of the sky as a set of discrete delta functions can limit the dynamic ...

A Radio-interferometric Imaging Method Based on the Wavelet Tight Frame

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Reconstructing the signal from measured visibilities in radio interferometry is an ill-posed inverse problem. In this paper, we present a novel radio-interferometric imaging method based on the wavelet tight frame aimed at efficiently obtaining an ...

A generalised Measurement Equation and van Cittert-Zernike theorem for wide-field radio astronomical interferometry

open access: yes, 2008
We derive a generalised van Cittert-Zernike (vC-Z) theorem for radio astronomy that is valid for partially polarized sources over an arbitrarily wide field-of-view (FoV).

Viscoelasticity‐Induced Controllable Periodic Meso‐Textures of Liquid Crystal Polymers in Additive Manufacturing

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Viscoelasticity‐driven instabilities are harnessed to create tunable, periodic textures in 3D‐printed liquid crystalline polymers. This study illustrates how processing parameters control these spontaneous meso‐scale patterns. These unique structural architectures unlock new possibilities for functional devices, ranging from photonic components to ...

A Radio-interferometric Imaging Method Based on Adaptively Learned Sparsifying Basis

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
In radio interferometry, the process of reconstructing the signal from measured visibilities is an ill-posed inverse problem. Although the compressive sensing (CS) technology has been successfully applied in radio interferometry, the conventional CS ...

Redshift, Time, Spectrum - the most distant radio quasars with VLBI

open access: yes, 2012
The highest-redshift quasars are still rare and valuable objects for observational astrophysics and cosmology. They provide important constraints on the growth of the earliest supermassive black holes in the Universe, and information on the physical ...

Toughening β‐Ga2O3 via Mechanically Seeded Dislocations

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
β‐Ga2O3 is promising for next‐generation semiconductors but its brittleness limits flexible and high‐precision applications. Here, mechanically seeded dislocations introduced by surface deformation improved damage tolerance in (001) β‐Ga2O3. Nanoindentation and characterization show dislocations suppress cleavage cracks by enabling stable plastic ...
