Radio interferometric calibration and imaging has been one of the mainstays of RATT research from the beginning. Research highlights (and products) include:
-
Oleg Smirnov’s paper series on the Radio Interferometer Measurement Equation: RIME1, RIME2, RIME3
-
The CARACal calibration and imaging pipeline, developed jointly with our colleagues from SARAO, INAF, UP, Wits, ASTRON and University of Bochum.
-
Jon Kenyon’s CubiCal calibration package, as well as it’s soon-to-be-released successor, QuartiCal.
-
The DDFacet and killMS direction-dependent imaging and calibration suite, started by Cyril Tasse during his time at RATT, and to which development we continue to contribute.
-
Landman Bester’s PFB-CLEAN imager.
-
Iniyan Natarajan’s Zagros package for Bayesian modelling.
