1 The Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) Mike Garrett e-merlin & EVN in Sir Bernard Chair, Prof. of Astrophysics. SKA eralovell workshop Director Jodrell Bank Centre for Astrophysics - Introduction. Mike Garrett Sir Bernard Lovell Chair of Astrophysics, Director Jodrell Bank Centre for Astrophysics (JBCA).
2 e-merlin Update Since the last e-merlin workshop: - Two proposals submitted to STFC (PPRP) on 25 April, Telescope Operations ( ) Telescope Upgrade ( ) - Revised proposal submitted (19 May), referee comments received (21 June) and response (28 June) MeerKAT ASKAP J-VLA
3 PPRP Proposals Operations proposal request 2.7m per year: - Includes provision for 120days of LT time, - Inclusion of Goonhilly in the array, - Integration of e-merlin within EVN, - Beam-forming of e-merlin+lt for PSRs. MeerKAT ASKAP J-VLA
4 PPRP Proposals Operations proposal request 2.7m per year: - Includes provision for 120days of LT time, - Inclusion of Goonhilly in the array, - Integration of e-merlin within EVN, - Beam-forming of e-merlin+lt for PSRs. Development proposal requests 12m (total): - S and X-band receivers (1-25GHz), - Broad-banding (Δν), 2 => 8GHz, - Replacement of Defford with SKA Antenna, - Cooled PAF for Lovell 1-4 GHz, - Adoption of SKA SDP s/w & pipeline environment.
