0504677--Ellingson/Va TechThe award will cover the construction and initial operation of a low-frequency radio array operating in the band 29 - 47 MHz at the Pisgah Astronomical Research Institute that will be used to monitor virtually the entire sky at all times in a search for low-frequency radio transient phenomena. Such transients, which have yet to be observed, could arise from a variety of high-energy astrophysical phenomena including primordial black holes, gamma ray bursts, supernovae, and compact object mergers. Included in the project are advanced software development efforts to mine the large quantity of anticipated data for transient signatures as well as the development of techniques to deal with anticipated radio frequency interference in this band.

0504677 - 艾林森/VA Tech The Award将涵盖在Pisgah天文学研究所在乐队29-47 MHz中运行的低频无线电阵列的构建和初步操作，该阵列将用于搜索低频无线电瞬时现象，以搜索几乎所有时间的天空。尚未观察到的这种瞬态可能是由多种高能天体物理现象引起的，包括原始黑洞，伽马射线爆发，超新星和紧凑型物体合并。该项目中包括的是高级软件开发工作，以挖掘瞬态签名的大量预期数据，以及开发技术，以应对该乐队中预期的射频干扰。
