Celebrating 30 ASKAP Phased Array Feeds |
by Nic Svenson (CASS) |
The last phased array feed (PAF) to complete
ASKAP-30 rolled off the production line, was packed into a container and
headed off on its journey to the Murchison Radio-astronomy Observatory (MRO).
Completion of ASKAP-30 marks the end of the core federally funded construction
project: building the MRO itself, ASKAP's antennas, the first generation PAFs
used in ASKAP's test array, BETA, and the 30 second generation PAFs, along
with all their digital systems.
