We consider the Max Unique Coverage problem, including applications to the data stream model. The input is a universe of $n$ elements, a collection of $m$ subsets of this universe, and a cardinality constraint, $k$. The goal is to select a…

We present the results of 325 MHz GMRT observations of a super-cluster field, known to contain five Abell clusters at redshift $z \sim 0.2$. We achieve a nominal sensitivity of $34\,\mu$Jy beam$^{-1}$ toward the phase centre. We compile a…

We describe the method used to detect sources for the Herschel-ATLAS survey. The method is to filter the individual bands using a matched filter, based on the point-spread function (PSF) and confusion noise, and then form the inverse…

We explore a new Bayesian method of detecting galaxies from radio interferometric data of the faint sky. Working in the Fourier domain, we fit a single, parameterised galaxy model to simulated visibility data of star-forming galaxies. The…

We have used the MHW2 filter to obtain estimates of the flux densities at the WMAP frequencies of a complete sample of 2491 sources, mostly brighter than 500 mJy at 5 GHz, distributed over the whole sky excluding a strip around the Galactic…

The data reported in Planck's Early Release Compact Source Catalogue (ERCSC) are exploited to measure the number counts (dN/dS) of extragalactic radio sources at 30, 44, 70, 100, 143 and 217 GHz. Due to the full-sky nature of the catalogue,…
