GALFACTS Commensal Observing with I-GALFA

The GALFACTS consortium proposes to observe commensally with the I-GALFA survey (A2186). The inner Galaxy is the most important region for GALFACTS galactic disk science. While they will not replace the GALFACTS coverage of this region, the commensal observations with I-GALFA will allow the GALFACTS consortium to advance ma jor science ob jectives related to astrophysics of the magnetic field in the disk in a timely fashion. The polarimetric observations will also complement the I-GALFA HI images to allow study of the relationship between magnetic fields and the cold neutral ISM using these two Arecibo data sets. The GALFACTS data pipeline has been developed over the past two years using small pilot pro jects. With sufficient calibration observations in advance of the I-GALFA observations, we expect to be able to very rapidly turn the commensal observations into final scientific images for distribution to the GALFACTS consortium.
