SUMMARY:Kendrick Smith (Perimeter Institute) "CHIME: The Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment"
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nCHIME is a new interferometric telescope at radio frequencies 400-800 MHz.\nThe mapping speed (or total statistical power) of CHIME is among the largest\nof any radio telescope in the world\, and the technology powering CHIME could\nbe used to build telescopes which are orders of magnitude more powerful.\nRecently during precommissioning\, CHIME started finding new fast radio\nbursts (FRB’s) at an unprecedented rate\, including a new repeating FRB.\nUnderstanding the origin of fast radio bursts is a central unsolved problem\nin astrophysics\, and we anticipate that CHIME’s statistical power will play an\nimportant role in solving it. In this talk\, I’ll give a status update on CHIME\, with\nemphasis on FRB’s.
