The cal values are normally measured using the sky/absorber technique . The data taking setup is normally 25Mhz*4 bands of 256 lags each. Do 3 seconds calOn followed by 3 seconds calOff. Then step the band by 100 Mhz until the entire receiver band is done. ... This cal value uses the Y factor so call it calK_Y. It is also possible to measure the cals using just the absorber or just the sky if you know the receiver temperature (and you assume the reflection coef in the receiver is small). ...

... Shock is a non-linear plasma wave generated by plasma flow (Burgess, 1995). ... Shocks are thus places where plasma and field go through dramatic changes in density, temperature, field strength, and/or flow speed. If there is no plasma flow through the surface (Un <> 0) or there is no dissipation and compression across it, we talk about discontinuity only, not shock. ... Contact discontinuity . ... Plasma pressure and field strength increase at shock; magnetic field bends away from normal . ...
