The Synthesis Telescope at the Dominion Radio Astrophysical Observatory
We describe an aperture synthesis radio telescope optimized for studies of the Galactic interstellar medium (ISM), providing the ability to image extended structures with high angular resolution over wide fields. The telescope produces images of atomic hydrogen emission using the 21-cm H i spectral line, and, simultaneously, continuum emission in two bands centred at 1420MHz and 408MHz, includi...

AGN are elusive objects across that are visible across the electromagnetic spectrum. Currently, there is no complete picture of AGN formation and evolution in galaxy clusters. A general understanding of the AGN population has been impeded by cluster and selection biases and recent studies have shown that there is a large population of obscured or optically unremarkable AGN in galaxy clusters. T...

We use an X-ray stacking technique to investigate the evolution of the mean X-ray luminosity of ∼21,000 red galaxies at 0.3 ≤ z < 0.9 as a function of their stellar mass and redshift. The red galaxies are selected from the 9.3 deg 2 Boötes field of the NOAO Deep Wide-Field Survey (NDWFS). The mean X-ray luminosity is an order of magnitude larger than we would expect from stellar sources alone a...

As part of an initiative to reduce the size, weight, and complexity of radio astronomy receivers and to place the conversion from analog to digital signals as close to the telescope feed as possible, a prototype single-conversion, sideband-separating mixer receiver with a tunable local oscillator (LO) between 5 and 9 GHz has been built and tested. After straightforward gain and phase calibratio...

Measurements of microwave attenuation at room temperature and 4.2 K have been performed on some conductors commonly used in receiver input circuits. The reduction in loss on cooling is substantial, particularly for copper and plated gold, both of which showed a factor of 3 loss reduction. Copper passivated with benzotriazole shows the same loss as without passivation. The residual resistivity r...
