用费米LAT和ASKAP观测南天

A Southern Sky Survey with Fermi LAT and ASKAP

Robert A. Cameron

摘要:

我们提出的前景,未来联合伽马射线和无线电调查南半球源使用费米大面积望远镜(LAT)和即将到来的澳大利亚平方公里阵列探路者(ASKAP)射电望远镜。ASKAP是下一代射电望远镜,旨在以比以前的射电望远镜高得多的测量速度在GHz频率上进行测量,计划于2011年开始工程观测。介绍了费米LAT和ASKAP的测量能力,并对ASKAP计划的科学测量进行了总结。我们给出了一些预期的细节变量和慢瞬变(VAST)调查使用ASKAP,这将搜索从5秒到几年的时间尺度上的瞬变。总结了γ射线和射电波段的微弱源和瞬变源的一些观测特性,并总结了利用ASKAP调查数据识别LAT源对应物的前景和策略。

英文摘要:

We present the prospects for a future joint gamma-ray and radio survey of southern hemisphere sources using the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) and the upcoming Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP) radio telescope. ASKAP is a next generation radio telescope designed to perform surveys at GHz frequencies at a much higher survey speed than previous radio telescopes, and is scheduled to start engineering observations in 2011. The survey capabilities of both Fermi LAT and ASKAP are described, and the planned science surveys for ASKAP are summarized. We give some expected details of the Variable and Slow Transient (VAST) survey using ASKAP, which will search for transients on timescales from 5 seconds to years. Some observational properties of faint and transient sources seen at gamma-ray and radio wavelengths are summarized, and prospects and strategies for using ASKAP survey data for LAT source counterpart identification are summarized.
