Candidacy paper. Summer 2017.

  35   Wed Jul 19 16:46:15 2017 Jorge TorresWrite-upsGeneralMisconceptions Other

Some of the misconceptions we could find in our field. Useful for neophytes in our group.

When things that produce calibration signals are pulsers with an e.  Pulsars are astronomical objects.

For us the plural of antenna is antennas.  Antennae is used for insects and aliens!  

Feel free to add other misconceptions, the .tex file is included.

Here is Eugene Hong's Ph.D. dissertation from 2014.

It concentrates on the ARA Testbed including a diffuse search using 2 years of Testbed data.

Just in case anyone wants to read my thesis.  :)  I pointed Brian D. to it today to read about how to set limits.  The limits included systematic uncertainties too, which is standard in particle physics but we don't do that yet (but we should).

Hello!  See the attached report relating the compressibility of firn, the density profile, and the resulting index of refraction profile.  The gradient of the index of refraction profile determines the curvature of classically refracted rays.

  17   Sat Mar 18 17:05:09 2017 Amy ConnollyWrite-upsAnalysisEffect of Phase Center Offsets in LCP/RCP Correlation MapsANITA

This is a writeup I worked on last Fall, arguing that even if we have phase center offsets between H and V, our L and R maps should still show a good reconstruction.

  16   Fri Mar 17 00:25:49 2017 Amy ConnollyWrite-upsTheoryDependence of density of packed snow with depthARA

I had a glaciology day and did my own derivation of rho(z) using the compressibility of packed snow.  The conclusions are a bit different from what Jordan found, although similar and greater depths, so I'll be interested to hear what he thinks, or anyone else!

Attached are my writeup, and an interesting paper reporting measurements of compressibility of packed ice.
