In long-baseline interferometry, bandwidth smearing of an extended source occurs at finite bandwidth when its different components produce interference packets that only partially overlap. In this case, traditional model fitting or image…

The spatial-frequency coverage of a radio interferometer is increased by combining samples acquired at different times and observing frequencies. However, astrophysical sources often contain complicated spatial structure that varies within…
Solar activity, such as flares, produce bursts of high-energy radiation that temporarily enhance the D-region of the ionosphere and attenuate low-frequency radio waves. To track these Sudden Ionospheric Disturbances (SIDs), which disrupt…
The fields of view of Extremely Large Telescopes will contain vast numbers of spatial sampling elements (spaxels) as their Adaptive Optics systems approach the diffraction limit over wide fields. Since this will exceed the detection…
