Science with the AusSRC: Building on the Precursors Towards the SKA

Abstract:

The Australian SKA Regional Centre (AusSRC) is Australia’s portion of the international SKA Regional Centre Network (SRCNet), which aims to establish and build capability to support the Australian and international SKA science communities, thereby ushering in the next era of astronomical discovery and advanced data processing.  This presentation will cover AusSRC’s science support, with highlights from our current SRCNet activities and current round of Australian SKA precursor support, including visibility compression, and the development and implementation of science workflows for representative SKA science, with particular focus on visualisation and analysis capabilities within the Cube Analysis and Rendering Tool for Astronomy (CARTA). A summary will be presented of our future plans, in transitioning toward supporting SKA science verification.
