Univ of Pune) Abstract Type : Poster Abstract Category : Instrumentation and Techniques Abstract : We present results of characterization of the newly ​commissioned​ 15-m radio telescope at the NCRA campus. Operating between roughly 1000-1500 MHz, this telescope has newly been fitted with an upgraded back-end as well as a modern monitoring and control system. An automated pipeline is also being written for data analysis. Here we present results from recent ​characterization tests, as well as science verification experiments. We also describe the novel pipeline connecting the monitoring and control system, the data acquisition and processing and the final data analysis package. |
