Second Workshop on
3rd Generation Calibration
in Radio Astronomy
Portugal, 18-30 Sept 2011
Proposed Discussion Topics for the 3GC-II workshop
There are 11 proposed discussion topics.
| Name | Topic |
| Brisken, Walter | Limitations of primary beam calculations |
| Craeye, Christophe | I'll give a talk related to functional representation of fields in apertures |
| Hall, Duncan | What will it take to operate data processing in real-time pipeline modes to deliver the published aspirations for SKA proposed Phases 1 and 2? |
| Koopmans, Leon | I could discuss full three-dimensional tomography of the ionosphere and how it can be used in calibration. I hope through discussions to come to a deeper understanding of the problem at hand by looking at it from a different perspective than usually is done. |
| Kudryavtseva, Nadia | Comparison of various methods for finding a primary beam shape. Correlated(synthesised) beam shape versus primary beam shape, sidelobes of which affect observations more. |
| Labropoulos, Panos | GPU Imaging |
| Noordam, Jan | Life, the Universe, and Everything |
| Theron, Isak | MeerKAT dish design and EM simulations |
| Veidt, Bruce | I have been invited to speak on simulating telescope systems with GRASP9. |
| Wijnholds, Stefan | Dynamic range limitations due to (beam shape) calibration errors and the tools we have available to make such analysis. |
| Willis, Tony | Off-axis instrumental polarization problems |
