AST 0307670PI: GaryThis project supports the Owens Valley Solar Array (OVSA), the only university-based solar dedicated radio imaging array, through operations support, partial support for the personnel on the site at Owens Valley Radio Observatory (Big Pine, CA), and partial support for graduate student and post-doctoral research with the data. As the only solar-dedicated radio instrument in the United States, continued operation of the instrument, through its unique combination of imaging and spectral coverage, provides quantitative physical measurements of solar particles and magnetic fields in thousands of solar flares.Broader Impacts: The OVSA instrument represents irreplaceable infrastructure for research and education. The OVSA data provide research projects for undergraduate and graduate students at the New Jersey Institute of Technology, an urban school, in Newark, NJ, and the students working with the data come from a diverse group. The OVSA facilities provide a testbed for prototyping of antennas, feeds, and signal transmission systems for the new Frequency Agile Solar Radio telescope, highly ranked by two national decadal surveys, conceived to be a national facility, and the world's premiere solar instrument for the next two decades. The OVSA data are available through a web interface to scientists worldwide to add to their studies of the Sun and solar activity. Solar activity can have a direct impact on society through its effects on satellite and communication systems, among others. Results from OVSA are used to bring the excitement of this research to school and community groups, through involvement with the Newark Museum, the Newark Discovery Charter School, and Project Astro NOVA in New Jersey.

AST 0307670PI：Garythis项目支持Owens Valley Solar Array（OVSA），这是唯一的基于大学的太阳能专用无线电成像阵列，通过操作支持，对Owens Valley Radio Pacre Verservatory（Big Pine，CA）的现场人员的部分支持，以及对研究生和后学生研究的部分支持。作为美国唯一的太阳量化无线电仪器，该仪器通过成像和光谱覆盖范围的独特组合继续运行，可在数千个太阳能燃烧器中对太阳颗粒和磁场进行定量的物理测量。Boader的影响：OVSA仪器代表不可修复的基础结构用于研究和教育。 OVSA数据为新泽西理工学院的本科生和研究生提供了研究项目，新泽西州纽瓦克市的城市学校，与数据一起工作的学生来自一个多元化的小组。 OVSA设施为新频率敏捷太阳能射电望远镜的天线，进料和信号传输系统的原型制作提供了测试台，并由两项被认为是国家设施的国家衰老调查以及未来两年的全球首映太阳能仪器高度排名。 OVSA数据可通过Web界面向全球科学家提供，以增加他们对太阳和太阳活动的研究。太阳能活动可以通过其对卫星和通信系统等的影响对社会产生直接影响。 通过参与纽瓦克博物馆，纽瓦克发现特许学校和新泽西州的Project Astro Nova，OVSA的结果用于将这项研究的兴奋带入学校和社区团体。
