We present the beam pattern measurement of the Tianlai Cylinder Pathfinder Array. As it is a pure drift-scan instrument, we exploit the North-South motion of the Sun to demonstrate that the primary beam is factorizable. Leveraging this…
The analysis of whole-sky galaxy surveys commonly suffers from the problems of shot-noise and incomplete sky coverage (e.g. at the Zone of Avoidance). The orthogonal set of spherical harmonics is utilized here to expand the observed galaxy…
We describe a "spatio-spectral" deconvolution algorithm for wide-band imaging in radio interferometry. In contrast with the existing multi-frequency reconstruction algorithms, the proposed method does not rely on a model of the…

In radio astronomy, the challenge of reconstructing a sky map from time ordered data (TOD) is known as an inverse problem. Standard map-making techniques and gridding algorithms are commonly employed to address this problem, each offering…
