Web-based Tools |
|
| OPAL | OPAL is the ATNF on-line proposal application system. It also provides access to previously submitted proposals and to the cover sheets for proposals submitted from 2006 APRS onwards. |
| ATCA SCHED | Information about the ATCA scheduling program, SCHED, and links to several versions of the program. |
| ATCA Sensitivity Calculator | Estimates the sensitivity and other characteristics of an ATCA observation. |
| ATCA Calibrator Search | Searches for calibrators and provides information on their properties. |
| ATCA Frequency Calculator | Determines the sky frequency for an ATCA observation. |
| ATCA Calibrator Cycle Time Calculator | Determines the length of time needed between successive observations on secondary calibrators. |
| ATCA VRI | The Virtual Radio Interferometer: A simulator for the ATCA that includes UV-coverage and fourier transforms. Lets you simulate various "what-if" scenarios in radio interferometry. |
| Parkes Sensitivity Calculator | Estimates the theoretical rms noise level for line and continuum observations with the Parkes telescope. |
| Mopra Schedule Tool for Position Switching | A tool for creating Mopra schedule files for position switching. |
| Mopra Schedule Tool for On-the-Fly Mapping | A tool for creating Mopra schedule files for on-the-fly (OTF) mapping. |
| Mopra Sensitivity Calculator | Estimates the theoretical rms noise level for line and continuum observations with the Mopra telescope. |
| Tidbinbilla Sensitivity Calculator | Estimates the theoretical rms noise level for line and continuum observations with the Tidbinbilla 70-m telescope. |
| VLBI Sensitivity Calculator | Estimates the theoretical rms noise levels and uv coverage for line and continuum VLBI observations. |
| Lines | Determines the rest frequencies of recombination or molecular/atomic spectral lines within Parkes receiver bandwidths |
| Coord | Calculates the rise and set times of sources for a range of observatories |
| Planets | Give the position of the sun, moon or planets at a given site. |
| Radial Velocities | Calculates the radial velocity components of an observer's velocity. Sun etc. |
| InterSat | Plots positions of interfering satelites from any site. |
| Tools from HEASARC | HEASARC tools include a coordinate converter which accepts source names as well as coordinates. |
| TEMPO | A program for the analysis of pulsar timing data. |
| TEMPO2 | TEMPO2 is a new package that will replace TEMPO. It has been designed for the new generation of high-precision pulsar timing experiments. Note that TEMPO2 is not yet fully tested or implemented. |
