SUMMARY:S&A Colloquium: Chenoa Tremblay (SETI / Breakthrough)
DESCRIPTION: Large-Scale Technosignatures Searches and the Stuff that Makes it Work\n\nAbstract: The search for technological life beyond Earth is a large-scale search for unidentified spectral-temporal signatures. So far\, most searches for these electromagnetic “technosignatures” have required dedicated time on telescopes or the use of archival data. A new digital back-end for the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) and the MeerKAT telescopes has been developed to continuously observe the sky during observations and process the data in real-time to detect these unique signals. The systems named COSMIC (the Commensal Open-source Multimode Interferometric Cluster) and BL USE employ Ethernet packet protocols\, real-time calibration strategies\, coherent and incoherent beamforming\, and open-source Doppler search algorithms to complete this goal at high-time and high-frequency resolutions. In collaboration with NRAO and the VLA sky-survey team\, we are recording during epoch 4 of the survey for one of the first all-sky searches for extraterrestrial signals\, with the sensitivity improvements allowed by such a powerful telescope. The purpose of this talk is to present the hardware and software structures of COSMIC and BL USE\, how they function\, and our first results. \nJoin Event on Microsoft Teams\nLocation\n\nOrganiser\n\nEvent details\nDownload iCal\nCategory\nColloquia
