The recently commissioned Compact Array Broadband Backend (CABB) on the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) provides 2 GHz bandwidth in each frequency and polarisation, significantly increasing the sensitivity of the Array. This…
Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) observations in sky regions selected to be low in foreground confusion have been used to infer limits on arcmin-scale CMB anisotropy in total intensity and polarization. These deep searches have,…
We have made an 8.7 GHz image of a sky region with a resolution of 8 arcmin and high brightness sensitivity using the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA). in an ultra compact configuration. The foreground discrete-source confusion was…
We report the use of the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) to conduct polarimetric observations of the sky at 5 GHz. The ATCA is normally operated as an interferometer array, but these observations were conducted in a split array…
In this paper we describe the system design and capabilities of the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP) radio telescope at the conclusion of its construction project and commencement of science operations. ASKAP is one of…
The Rapid ASKAP Continuum Survey (RACS) is the first large-area survey to be conducted with the full 36-antenna Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP) telescope. RACS will provide a shallow model of the ASKAP sky that will aid…
A new astronomical window into the southern skies has been opened with the high-frequency upgrade to the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA), which allows radio-interferometric mapping of sources at wavelengths as short as 3mm. In…
Science results from pilot surveys with the full 36-antenna Australian Square Kilometer Array Pathfinder (ASKAP) have increased strongly over the last few years. This trend is likely to continue with full surveys scheduled to commence later…
We have made a radio survey--the Australia Telescope Low Brightness Survey (ATLBS)--of 8.4 square degrees sky area, using the Australia Telescope Compact Array in the 20-cm band, in an observing mode designed to provide wide-field images…
We have surveyed six distinct `empty fields' using the Australia Telescope Compact Array in an ultra-compact configuration with the aim of imaging, with a high brightness sensitivity, any arcmin-scale brightness-temperature anisotropies in…
In order to operationalize the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) for space situational awareness (SSA) applications, we develop a system model for range and direction of arrival (DOA) estimation based on the interferometric data. We…
[ABRIDGED VERSION] The future of cm and m-wave astronomy lies with the Square Kilometre Array (SKA), a telescope under development by a consortium of 17 countries. The SKA will be 50 times more sensitive than any existing radio facility. A…

We have conducted a widefield, wideband, snapshot survey using the Australian SKA Pathfinder (ASKAP) referred to as the Rapid ASKAP Continuum Survey (RACS). RACS covers $\approx$ 90% of the sky, with multiple observing epochs in three…
We describe the performance of the Boolardy Engineering Test Array (BETA), the prototype for the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder telescope ASKAP. BETA is the first aperture synthesis radio telescope to use phased array feed…
We introduce the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) rapid-response mode by presenting the first successful trigger on the short-duration gamma-ray burst (GRB) 181123B. Early-time radio observations of short GRBs may provide vital…
We present the design of, and a first analysis of data from, the atmospheric seeing monitor at the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA). The seeing monitor has been operational almost continuously since May 2004 and every 10min delivers…
We have produced an image of the microwave sky with 30' resolution in a 2 degree field using the Cosmic Anisotropy Telescope (CAT). Analysis of data taken at three frequencies near 15 GHz indicates that most of the signal is due to the CMB,…
The Boolardy Engineering Test Array is a 6 x 12 m dish interferometer and the prototype of the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP), equipped with the first generation of ASKAP's phased array feed (PAF) receivers. These…
