Apertif DR2 - HI spectral cubes
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
Apertif is a phased-array feed system for the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope (WSRT), providing forty instantaneous beams over 300 MHz of bandwidth.
Description
A description of the second data release is to be included here. This service queries the spectral line cubes from the second data release of Apertif.
Four line cubes are produced over a set of different frequency ranges as follows. Cube 0: 1292.5–1337.1 MHz, Cube 1: 1333.1–1377.7 MHz, Cube 2: 1373.8–1418.4 MHz, Cube 3: 1414.5–1429.3 MHz. Cube 3 is produced at full spectral resolution of 12.2 kHz while other cubes are produced with a 3-channel averaging at 36.6 kHz resolution.

The cubes have a spatial extent of 1.1 deg × 1.1 deg (661 × 661 pixels, with 6''/pixel). The median noise for all line cubes, with a spectral resolution of 36.6 kHz, is 1.6 mJy/beam, corresponding to a 3-σ H I column density sensitivity of 1.8 × 10^20 atoms cm^−2 over 20 km s^−1 (for a median angular resolution of 24″ × 15″). The corresponding dirty beam cubes are also released to allow offline cleaning of source emission.
