The Allen Telescope Array (ATA)

The Allen Telescope Array, commissioned on 2007 October 11, is a 42-element radio telescope under construction at Hat Creek, CA. One of the projects to be undertaken with the ATA is FiGSS, the Five GHz Sky Survey. A recent poster by Steve Croft and Geoff Bower discussing the first large (150 square degree) map made with the ATA, as well as the plans for FiGGS, is available as a PDF here. A 2006 presentation by Geoff Bower, discussing FiGGS and transient science with the ATA is available as a PDF here.
