ProSci Report

This document outlines the key strategies for the MWA (Murchison Widefield Array) to improve the quality of its science case publications and ensure the technical alignment of its projects. It emphasizes the need for coordination among team members to gather contributions for peer-reviewed articles, highlighting the significance of a strong science narrative in the literature. Additionally, it calls for the identification and pursuit of science-driven studies required to define MWA's specifications and operational requirements while addressing the integration of on-site storage and fiber transmission needs.

  6. Science Case Publication • charter • organize, edit, and write peer-reviewed publication in PASA of the MWA science case in tandem with general technical specifications and linkages. • team members coordinate (lasso) contributions from individuals in the KSPs. • motivation • An MWA science case in the peer-reviewed literature helps the project and everyone in it. • ASKAP case (PASA, ExA) • suggest broad authorship

  7. Science Case Publication • team • boom: David Kaplan (UCSB) • geg: Shami Chatterjee (USyd/ATNF) • eor: Judd Bowman (CalTech) • shi: Justin Kasper (CfA) • P.S.: Lincoln Greenhill (CfA) • P.D.: Alan Whitney (Haystack) • goal • submission << end of Q1 2009; < 30 pp + refs. • leverage Lonsdale et al. 2009, IEEE • Flexible description of array (e.g., O(500) tiles)

  8. Sample of Sci-Tech Linkages

  9. Alignment • Charter • identify and analyze science package requirements substantively in tension; • identify and pursue science-driven studies (via simulation) that may be required to set MWA specifications and operational requirements; • assess alignment between planned RTS output/ops and science package requirements; and • assess on-site storage/service and fiber transmission requirements for each science package.

  10. Alignment • Team • boom: David Kaplan (UCSB) • geg/boom: Tara Murphy (USyd) • eor: Judd Bowman (CalTech) • shi: Justin Kasper (CfA) • rts: Daniel Mitchell (CfA) • p.s. Lincoln Greenhill (CfA) • p.e. Frank Briggs (ANU) • Hot seat Feb - May ’09 • formal science-technical trade study desired • to depend heavily on simulations and RTS use
