使用CASA进行ALMA服务数据分析和2级质量保证

ALMA service data analysis and level 2 quality assurance with CASA

Dirk Petry, Baltasar Vila-Vilaro, Eric Villard, Shinya Komugi, Scott Schnee

摘要:

阿塔卡马大型毫米和亚毫米阵列(ALMA)射电天文台是世界上最大的天文项目之一。在第一个观察周期(早期科学周期0和1)非常成功地结束后,ALMA项目可以报告许多成功经验和教训。科学数据与仍在继续增加的新功能的调试测试交织在一起,已经在知名期刊上发表了许多文章。不断增加的数据量和复杂性具有挑战性,但在控制之中。射电天文学数据分析软件包“通用天文学软件应用程序”在这方面发挥了关键作用。本文介绍了ALMA数据质量保证体系的实施情况,特别是基于CASA的第2级数据质量保证体系的实施情况,以及取得的经验教训。

英文摘要:

The Atacama Large mm and sub-mm Array (ALMA) radio observatory is one of the world's largest astronomical projects. After the very successful conclusion of the first observation cycles Early Science Cycles 0 and 1, the ALMA project can report many successes and lessons learned. The science data taken interleaved with commissioning tests for the still continuing addition of new capabilities has already resulted in numerous publications in high-profile journals. The increasing data volume and complexity are challenging but under control. The radio-astronomical data analysis package "Common Astronomy Software Applications" (CASA) has played a crucial role in this effort. This article describes the implementation of the ALMA data quality assurance system, in particular the level 2 which is based on CASA, and the lessons learned.
