We report the design and functionality of the Murchison Widefield Array Particle Detector Array (MWA PDA), an array of eight particle scintillation detectors deployed to Inyarrimanha Ilgari Bundara, the Murchison Radio-astronomy Observatory…

The Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) is a low-frequency aperture array capable of high-time and frequency resolution astronomy applications such as pulsar studies. The large field-of-view of the MWA (hundreds of square degrees) can also be…

The Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) is an electronically steered low frequency ($<300$\,MHz) radio interferometer, with a `slew' time less than 8seconds. Low frequency ($\sim 100$\,MHz) radio telescopes are ideally suited for rapid-response…

We present the first spectroscopic images of solar radio transients from the prototype for the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA), observed on 2010 March 27. Our observations span the instantaneous frequency band 170.9-201.6 MHz. Though our…

The wide adoption of low-frequency radio interferometers as a tool for deeper and higher resolution astronomical observations has revolutionised radio astronomy. Despite their construction from static, relatively simple dipoles, the sheer…
