Description
This is the final, full data release from the Apertif Radio Transient
System (ARTS), a supercomputing radio-telescope instrument that
performed real-time FRB detection and localisation on the Westerbork
Synthesis Radio Telescope (WSRT) interferometer. It reached
coherent-addition sensitivity over the entire field of the view of the
primary- dish beam. The Apertif FRB survey (ALERT) detected 24 new
FRBs, and interferometrically localised each of these to 0.4−10 sq.
arcmin. All detections are broad band and very narrow, of order 1 ms
duration, with high dispersion measures. Please note that the ARTS DR2
collection includes all data from the DR1 collection.
