Title: SimWG membership


1
SimWG membership
  • Robert Braun, Jaap Bregman, John Conway, Shep
    Doeleman, Peter Hall, Andrei Lobanov, George
    Nicolson, Steve Tingay, Mattieu de Villiers,
    Maxim Voronkov, Craig Walker, Mel Wright

SimWG
  • Optimised config for both candidate sites
    required for late 2008.
  • Working to specs of SWG (with some clarifications
    requested)
  • 3 receptors simultaneously optimised
  • Need to determine min. no of stations
  • Place stations in candidate sites
  • Manpower an issue

3
Configurations Strategy
  • Apply constraints of KSPs for distribution of
    collecting area
  • Optimise for best imaging array, (uv-gap
    parameter)
  • Apply obvious topological constraints of the two
    candidate sites
  • Request candidate sites to fine tune

4
Configurations Open Questions
  • Max. number of receptor types - how many cores
  • Minimum baseline sensitivity as a function of
    baseline length (calibration)
  • Can we afford to correlate all stations
  • Full u,v coverage, dynamic range and FoV as a
    function of baseline and receptor
  • Thinking beyond the KSPs
  • Station footprint
