ASKAP Phased-Array Feed No 17
by Brett Hiscock (CASS)
The roll-out of Phased-Array Feeds (PAFs) on the Australian SKA Pathfinder continues. Currently data are being taken with up to 36 beams on the ASKAP-12 array, while the PAF commissioning on the 64-m Parkes Dish is also progressing well. Another twelve PAFs are ready, either already on site or under-going final testing before shipment to the Murchison Radioastronomy Observatory (MRO). The picture above shows PAF No 17 ready for installation on ASKAP.
