Thesis
The astrophysics of relativistic radio transients
- Abstract:
-
Astrophysical jets are ubiquitously associated with the most energetic phenomema in the Universe. In this thesis, I will present and discuss radio observations of two types of transient systems: neutron star X-ray binaries and gamma-ray bursts (GRBs).
In Chapter 2, I present the basics of radio interferometry: the method by which I collect data for this thesis. This is explained using a two dish interferometry. I then go on to explain the data reduction process whereby voltages f...
