Reference for a Good Introduction to Synthesis Imaging in Radio Astronomy

-- | April 9, 2017

Question: Hi, I am learning the radio astronomy imaging under the coexistence with the wireless communication. Could you please recommend some related materials? Thanks. — Shui

Answer: A good place to start to learn about radio astronomy imaging would the ASP Conference Series Volume 6 on “Synthesis Imaging in Radio Astronomy”(you can also access each of the chapters in this volume via ADS). This collection of lectures is really unparalleled in its coverage of radio astronomy synthesis imaging.

The National Radio Astronomy Observatory is a facility of the U.S. National Science Foundation operated under cooperative agreement by Associated Universities, Inc.
	Founded in 1956, the NRAO provides state-of-the-art radio telescope facilities for use by the international scientific community. NRAO telescopes are open to all astronomers regardless of institutional or national affiliation. Observing time on NRAO telescopes is available on a competitive basis to qualified scientists after evaluation of research proposals on the basis of scientific merit, the capability of the instruments to do the work, and the availability of the telescope during the requested time. NRAO also provides both formal and informal programs in education and public outreach for teachers, students, the general public, and the media.
	The U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) is an independent federal agency created by Congress in 1950 "to promote the progress of science; to advance the national health, prosperity, and welfare; to secure the national defense..."
	AUI collaborates with the scientific community and research sponsors to plan, build, and operate cutting-edge facilities. We cultivate excellence, deliver value, enhance education, and engage the public.
