| 1 | The fundamental performance of FAST with 19-beam receiver at L band显示文摘The Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope(FAST) has passed national acceptance and finished one pilot cycle of ‘Shared-Risk’ observations. It will start formal operation soon. In this context, this paper describes testing results of key fundamental parameters for FAST, aiming to provide basic support for observation and data reduction of FAST for scientific researchers. The 19-beam receiver covering 1.05–1.45 GHz was utilized for most of these observations. The fluctuation in electronic gain of the system is better than 1% over 3.5 hours, enabling enough stability for observations. Pointing accuracy,aperture efficiency and system temperature are three key parameters for FAST. The measured standard deviation of pointing accuracy is 7.9′′, which satisfies the initial design of FAST. When zenith angle is less than 26.4°, the aperture efficiency and system temperature around 1.4 GHz are ~0.63 and less than 24 K for central beam, respectively. The sensitivity and stability of the 19-beam backend are confirmed to satisfy expectation by spectral HI observations toward NGC 672 and polarization observations toward 3 C 286. The performance allows FAST to take sensitive observations for various scientific goals, from studies of pulsars to galaxy evolution. | Peng Jiang Ning-Yu Tang Li-Gang Hou Meng-Ting Liu Marko Krco Lei Qian Jing-Hai Sun Tao-Chung Ching Bin Liu Yan Duan You-Ling Yue Heng-Qian Gan Rui Yao Hui Li Gao-Feng Pan Dong-Jun Yu Hong-Fei Liu Di Li Bo Peng Jun Yan FAST Collaboration | 2020 | Research in Astronomy and Astrophysics2020,20,5: | 5 |

| 3 | RFI measurements and mitigation for FAST显示文摘Radio Frequency Interference(RFI)mitigation is essential for supporting the science output of Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope(FAST)due to its high sensitivity.In order to protect FAST from RFI,an Electromagnetic Compatibility(EMC)study has been carried out and the operation of a Radio Quiet Zone(RQZ)is ongoing.RFI measurements of the telescope instruments and monitoring of the active radio services outside the site have revealed the radiation properties of the RFI sources.Based on the measurement results and theoretical analysis,various EMC methods have been implemented for the telescope to decrease the RFIs.Meanwhile,the main RFI sources in the FAST RQZ,such as mobile stations,broadcast stations and navigation instruments,have been identified,and the technical measures have been adopted to protect the quiet radio environment around the site.The early science outputs of FAST have demonstrated the efficiency of RFI mitigation methods. | Hai-Yan Zhang Ming-Chang Wu You-Ling Yue Heng-Qian Gan Hao Hu Shi-Jie Huang Xin-Xin Zhang Jin-Hai Sun Bo Peng Ren-Dong Nan FAST Collaboration | 2020 | Research in Astronomy and Astrophysics2020,20,5: | 2 |
| 4 | An Arecibo follow-up study of seven pulsars discovered by Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope(FAST)显示文摘We present Arecibo 327 MHz confirmation and follow-up studies of seven new pulsars discovered by the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope(FAST).These pulsars are discovered in a pilot program of the Commensal Radio Astronomy FAST Survey(CRAFTS)with the ultra-widebandwidth commissioning receiver.Five of them are normal pulsars and two are extreme nulling slow pulsars.PSR J2111+2132’s dispersion measure(DM:78.5 pc cm^(-3))is above the upper limits of the two Galactic free electron density models,NE2001 and YMW16,and PSR J2057+2133’s position is out of the Scutum-Crux Arm,making them uniquely useful for improving the Galactic free electron density model in their directions.We present a detailed single pulse analysis for the slow nulling pulsars.We show evidence that PSR J2323+1214’s main pulse component follows a non-Poisson distribution and marginal evidence for a sub-pulse-drift or recurrent period of 32.3±0.4 rotations from PSR J0539+0013.We discuss the implication of our finding to the pulsar radiation mechanism. | 王珅 朱炜玮 李菂 潘之辰 王培 James M.Cordes Shami Chatterjee 姚菊枚 钱磊 岳友岭 张蕾 赵汝双 王双强 牛佳瑞 袁懋 缪晨晨 谢晓尧 刘志杰 于徐红 游善平 孟令祺 FAST Collaboration | 2021 | Research in Astronomy and Astrophysics2021,21,10: | 1 |
| 5 | Opportunities to search for extraterrestrial intelligence with the FAST显示文摘The discovery of ubiquitous habitable extrasolar planets,combined with revolutionary advances in instrumentation and observational capabilities,has ushered in a renaissance in the search for extraterrestrial intelligence(SETI).Large scale SETI activities are now underway at numerous international facilities.The Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope(FAST)is the largest single-aperture radio telescope in the world,and is well positioned to conduct sensitive searches for radio emission indicative of exo-intelligence.SETI is one of the five key science goals specified in the original FAST project plan.A collaboration with the Breakthrough Listen Initiative was initiated in 2016 with a joint statement signed both by Dr.Jun Yan,the then director of National Astronomical Observatories,Chinese Academy of Sciences(NAOC),and Dr.Peter Worden,Chairman of the Breakthrough Prize Foundation.In this paper,we highlight some of the unique features of FAST that will allow for novel SETI observations.We identify and describe three different signal types indicative of a technological source,namely,narrow band,wide-band artificially dispersed and modulated signals.Here,we propose observations with FAST to achieve sensitivities never before explored.For nearby exoplanets,such as TESS targets,FAST will be sensitive to an EIRP of 1.9×1011 W,well within the reach of current human technology.For the Andromeda Galaxy,FAST will be able to detect any Kardashev type II or more advanced civilization there. | Di Li Vishal Gajjar Pei Wang Andrew Siemion Zhi-Song Zhang Hai-Yan Zhang You-Ling Yue Yan Zhu Cheng-Jin Jin Shi-Yu Li Sabrina Berger Bryan Brzycki Jeff Cobb Steve Croft Daniel Czech David DeBoer Julia DeMarines Jamie Drew J.Emilio Enriquez Nectaria Gizani Eric J.Korpela Howard Isaacson Matthew Lebofsky Brian Lacki David H.E.MacMahon Morgan Nanez Chen-Hui Niu Xin Pei Danny C.Price Dan Werthimer Pete Worden Yunfan Gerry Zhang Tong-Jie Zhang FAST Collaboration | 2020 | Research in Astronomy and Astrophysics2020,20,5: | 1 |

| 7 | Performance of FAST with an Ultra-Wide Bandwidth Receiver at 500–3300 MHz显示文摘The Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope(FAST)has been running for several years.A new ultra-wide bandwidth(UWB)receiver,simultaneously covering 500-3300 MHz,has been mounted in the FAST feed cabin and has passed a series of observational tests.The whole UWB band is separated into four independent bands.Each band has 1,048,576 channels in total,resulting in a spectral resolution of 1 kHz.At 500-3300 MHz,the antenna gain is around 14.3-7.7 K Jy^(-1),the aperture efficiency is around 0.56-0.30,the system temperature is around 88-130 K,and the half-power beamwidth is around 7.6'-1.6'.The measured standard deviation of pointing accuracy is better than~7.9'when zenith angle is within 26.4°.The sensitivity and stability of the UWB receiver are confirmed to satisfy expectations through spectral observations,e.g.,HI and OH.The FAST UWB receiver has already demonstrated good performance in capturing sensitive observations for various scientific goals. | Chuan-Peng Zhang Peng Jiang Ming Zhu Jun Pan Cheng Cheng Hong-Fei Liu Yan Zhu Chun Sun FAST Collaboration | 2023 | Research in Astronomy and Astrophysics2023,23,7: | 1 |
| 8 | FAST VLBI: current status and future plans显示文摘The Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope(FAST)is the largest single-dish radio telescope in the world,and is now being commissioned after the first light in September 2016.Very long baseline interferometry(VLBI)is among the key science topics according to the original design.The FAST VLBI system has been established,and the first VLBI fringe has been successfully obtained.FAST will significantly improve the sensitivity of the existing VLBI networks in the future,and some science projects in need of high sensitivity will benefit from its participation. | Ru-Rong Chen Hai-Yan Zhang Cheng-Jin Jin Zhi-Shen Gao Yan Zhu Kai Zhu Peng Jiang You-Ling Yue Ji-Guang Lu Bo Zhang Wu Jiang Ren-Jie Zhu Shao-Guang Guo Bo Xia Rong-Bing Zhao FAST Collaboration | 2020 | Research in Astronomy and Astrophysics2020,20,5: | 0 |
| 9 | FAST interstellar scintillation observation of PSR B1929+10 and PSR B1842+14显示文摘In this paper,we present the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope(FAST)observations of PSRs B1929+10 and B1842+14.Through analysis of the pulsars’scintillation pattern,we detected the known scintillation arc from PSR B1929+10 and two previously undetected scintillation arcs from B1842+14.We find that the B1929+10 arc’s curvature scales with observing frequency asη-∝ν-2.1±0.1 andη+∝ν-1.8±0.2,consistent with Arecibo results and the theoretical expectations ofη∝ν-2.From the arc curvature,we infer the scattering screen to be located at 0.20±0.02 kpc from the Earth,close to what was measured by RadioAstron at 324 MHz.From B1842+14,we find two scintillation arcs for the first time.The arcs’curvatures imply that they are caused by two scattering screens located at a distance of 0.3±0.2 kpc and 1.6±0.6 kpc from the Earth,respectively.The screen distance uncertainties mainly come from the uncertainty in pulsar’s dispersion measure(DM)-derived distance.We present these FAST scintillation observations and discuss the future prospect of FAST pulsar scintillation study. | Ju-Mei Yao Wei-Wei Zhu Pei Wang Di Li Ji-Guang Lu Fei-Fei Kou Ye-Zhao Yu Bo Peng FAST Collaboration | 2020 | Research in Astronomy and Astrophysics2020,20,5: | 0 |
| 10 | Pilot HI survey of Planck Galactic Cold Clumps with FAST显示文摘We present a pilot HI survey of 17 Planck Galactic Cold Clumps(PGCCs)with the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope(FAST).HI Narrow Self-Absorption(HINSA)is an effective method to detect cold HI being mixed with molecular hydrogen H2 and improves our understanding of the atomic to molecular transition in the interstellar medium.HINSA was found in 58%PGCCs that we observed.The column density of HINSA was found to have an intermediate correlation with that of 13CO,following log(N(HINSA))=(0.52±0.26)log(N13CO)+(10±4.1).HI abundance relative to total hydrogen[HI]/[H]has an average value of 4.4×10-3,which is about 2.8 times of the average value of previous HINSA surveys toward molecular clouds.For clouds with total column density NH>5×1020 cm-2,an inverse correlation between HINSA abundance and total hydrogen column density is found,confirming the depletion of cold HI gas during molecular gas formation in more massive clouds.Nonthermal line width of 13CO is about 0-0.5 kms-1 larger than that of HINSA.One possible explanation of narrower non-thermal width of HINSA is that HINSA region is smaller than that of 13CO.Based on an analytic model of H2 formation and H2 dissociation by cosmic ray,we found the cloud ages to be within 106.7-107.0 yr for five sources. | 汤宁宇 左沛 李菂 Lei Qian Tie Liu Yue-Fang Wu Marko Krco Meng-Ting Liu You-Ling Yue Yan Zhu Hong-Fei Liu Dong-Jun Yu Jing-Hai Sun Peng Jiang Gao-Feng Pan Hui Li Heng-Qian Gan Rui Yao Shu Liu FAST Collaboration | 2020 | Research in Astronomy and Astrophysics2020,20,5: | 0 |
| 11 | FAST discovery of an extremely radio-faint millisecond pulsar from the Fermi-LAT unassociated source 3FGL J0318.1+0252显示文摘High sensitivity radio searches of unassociated γ-ray sources have proven to be an effective way of finding new pulsars. Using the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope(FAST) during its commissioning phase, we have carried out a number of targeted deep searches of Fermi Large Area Telescope(LAT) γ-ray sources. On February 27, 2018 we discovered an isolated millisecond pulsar(MSP), PSR J0318+0253, coincident with the unassociated γ-ray source 3 FGL J0318.1+0252. PSR J0318+0253 has a spin period of 5.19 ms, a dispersion measure(DM) of 26 pc cm-3 corresponding to a DM distance of about 1.3 kpc, and a period-averaged flux density of(~11±2) μJy at L-band(1.05-1.45 GHz). Among all high energy MSPs, PSR J0318+0253 is the faintest ever detected in radio bands, by a factor of at least ~4 in terms of L-band fluxes. With the aid of the radio ephemeris, an analysis of 9.6 years of Fermi-LAT data revealed that PSR J0318+0253 also displays strong γ-ray pulsations. Follow-up observations carried out by both Arecibo and FAST suggest a likely spectral turn-over around 350 MHz. This is the first result from the collaboration between FAST and the Fermi-LAT teams as well as the first confirmed new MSP discovery by FAST, raising hopes for the detection of many more MSPs. Such discoveries will make a significant contribution to our understanding of the neutron star zoo while potentially contributing to the future detection of gravitational waves, via pulsar timing array(PTA) experiments. | Pei Wang Di Li Colin J.Clark Pablo M.Saz Parkinson Xian Hou Weiwei Zhu Lei Qian Youling Yue Zhichen Pan Zhijie Liu Xuhong Yu Shanping You Xiaoyao Xie Qijun Zhi Hui Zhang Jumei Yao Jun Yan Chengmin Zhang Kwok Lung Fan Paul S.Ray Matthew Kerr David A.Smith Peter F.Michelson Elizabeth C.Ferrara David J.Thompson Zhiqiang Shen Na Wang FAST&Fermi-LAT Collaboration | 2021 | Science China(Physics,Mechanics & Astronomy)2021,64,12: | 0 |
| 12 | The FAST all sky HI survey(FASHI):The first release of catalog显示文摘The FAST All Sky HI survey(FASHI)was designed to cover the entire sky observable by the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope(FAST),spanning approximately 22000 square degrees of declination between-14°and+66°,and in the frequency range of 1050-1450 MHz,with the expectation of eventually detecting more than 100000 HI sources.Between August 2020 and June 2023,FASHI had covered more than 7600 square degrees,which is approximately 35%of the total sky observable by FAST.It has a median detection sensitivity of around 0.76 m Jy beam-1and a spectral line velocity resolution of~6.4 km s-1at a frequency of~1.4 GHz.As of now,a total of 41741 extragalactic HI sources have been detected in the frequency range 1305.5-1419.5 MHz,corresponding to a redshift limit of z■0.09.By cross-matching FASHI sources with the Siena Galaxy Atlas(SGA)and the Sloan Digital Sky Survey(SDSS)catalogs,we found that 16972(40.7%)sources have spectroscopic redshifts and 10975(26.3%)sources have only photometric redshifts.Most of the remaining 13794(33.0%)HI sources are located in the direction of the Galactic plane,making their optical counterparts difficult to identify due to high extinction or high contamination of Galactic stellar sources.Based on current survey results,the FASHI survey is an unprecedented blind extragalactic H I survey.It has higher spectral and spatial resolution and broader coverage than the Arecibo Legacy Fast ALFA Survey(ALFALFA).When completed,FASHI will provide the largest extragalactic HI catalog and an objective view of HI content and large-scale structure in the local universe. | Chuan-Peng Zhang Ming Zhu Peng Jiang Cheng Cheng Jing Wang Jie Wang Jin-Long Xu Xiao-Lan Liu Nai-Ping Yu Lei Qian Haiyang Yu Mei Ai Yingjie Jing Chen Xu Ziming Liu Xin Guan Chun Sun Qingliang Yang Menglin Huang Qiaoli Hao FAST Collaboration | 2024 | Science China(Physics,Mechanics & Astronomy)2024,67,1: | 0 |
| 13 | Study of three rotating radio transients with FAST显示文摘Rotating radio transients(RRATs) are peculiar astronomical objects whose emission mechanism remains under investigation.In this paper, we present observations of three RRATs, J1538+2345, J1854+0306 and J1913+1330, carried out with the Fivehundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope(FAST). Specifically, we analyze the mean pulse profiles and temporal flux density evolutions of the RRATs. Owing to the high sensitivity of FAST, the derived burst rates of the three RRATs are higher than those in previous reports. RRAT J1854+0306 exhibited a time-dynamic mean pulse profile, whereas RRAT J1913+1330 showed distinct radiation and nulling segments on its pulse intensity trains. The mean pulse profile variation with frequency is also studied for RRAT J1538+2345 and RRAT J1913+1330, and the profiles at different frequencies could be well fitted with a cone-core model and a conal-beam model, respectively. | JiGuang Lu Bo Peng Kuo Liu Peng Jiang YouLing Yue Meng Yu Ye-Zhao Yu FeiFei Kou Lin Wang FAST Collaboration | 2019 | Science China(Physics,Mechanics & Astronomy)2019,62,5: | 0 |
| 14 | FAST ultra-wideband observation of abnormal emission-shift events of PSR B0919+06显示文摘PSR B0919+06 is known for its abnormal emission phenomenon, where the pulse emission window occasionally shifts progressively in longitude and returns afterwards. The physical mechanism behind this phenomenon is still under investigation. In this paper, we present our ultra-wideband observation of this pulsar using the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope(FAST), with simultaneous measurements in the frequency ranges 280-780 and 1250-1550 MHz. We have identified three abnormal events, each of which becomes less apparent as the frequency decreases. At 1400 MHz, the averaged profile slightly shifted after the first and third abnormal events, implying a relationship between abnormal event and profile variation. We also found a linear trend in the left-edge position of the averaged profiles between the first and third events as well as after the third event, suggesting the existence of a slow-drifting mode between the two major events. The second event has a comparatively small shift in phase and is thus categorized as a 'small flare state'. During the third event, a sequence of approximately nine pulses was seen to significantly weaken in all frequency bands, likely associated with the pseudo-nulling observed at 150 MHz.A three-component de-composition analysis of the normal averaged profiles shows that the trailing component is dominant at our observing frequencies, while the centre component has a comparatively steeper spectrum. We found the overall flux density in an abnormal event to slightly differ from that in an ordinary state, and the difference shows a frequency dependence. A comparison of the normal, abnormal and dimmed averaged profile indicates that the leading component is likely to be stable in all states. | Ye-Zhao Yu Bo Peng Kuo Liu ChengMin Zhang Lin Wang FeiFei Kou JiGuang Lu Meng Yu FAST Collaboration | 2019 | Science China(Physics,Mechanics & Astronomy)2019,62,5: | 0 |
| 15 | The radiation structure of PSR B2016+28 observed with FAST显示文摘With the largest dish Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope(FAST), both the mean and single pulses of PSR B2016+28, especially including the single-pulse structure, are investigated in detail in this study. The mean pulse profiles at different frequencies can be well fitted in a conal model, and the peak separation of intensity-dependent pulse profiles increases with intensity. The integrated pulses are obviously frequency dependent(pulse width decreases by ~20% as frequency increases from 300 to 750 MHz), but the structure of single pulses changes slightly(the corresponding correlation scale decreases by only~1%). This disparity between mean and single pulses provides independent evidence for the existence of the RS-type vacuum inner gap, indicating a strong bond between particles on the pulsar surface. Diffused drifting sub-pulses are analyzed. The results show that the modulation period along pulse series(P_3) is positively correlated to the separation between two adjacent sub-pulses(P_2). This correlation may hint a rough surface on the pulsar, eventually resulting in the irregular drift of sparks. All the observational results may have significant implications in the dynamics of pulsar magnetosphere and are discussed extensively in this paper. | JiGuang Lu Bo Peng RenXin Xu Meng Yu Shi Dai WeiWei Zhu Ye-Zhao Yu Peng Jiang YouLing Yue Lin Wang FAST Collaboration | 2019 | Science China(Physics,Mechanics & Astronomy)2019,62,5: | 0 |
| 16 | Status and perspectives of the CRAFTS extra-galactic HI survey显示文摘The Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope(FAST) is expected to complete its commissioning in 2019. FAST will soon begin the Commensal Radio Astronomy FasT Survey(CRAFTS), a novel and unprecedented commensal drift scan survey of the entire sky visible from FAST. The goal of CRAFTS is to cover more than 20000 deg2 and reach redshift up to about 0.35. We provide empirical measurements of the beam size and sensitivity of FAST across the 1.05 to 1.45 GHz frequency range of the FAST L-band array of 19-beams(FLAN). Using a simulated HI-galaxy catalogue based on the HI Mass Function(HIMF), we estimate the number of galaxies that CRAFTS may detect. At redshifts below 0.35, over 6 × 105 HI galaxies may be detected. Below the redshift of 0.07, the CRAFTS HIMF will be complete above a mass threshold of 109.5 M⊙. FAST will be able to investigate the environmental and redshift dependence of the HIMF to an unprecedented depth, shedding light onto the missing baryon and missing satellite problems. | Kai Zhang JingWen Wu Di Li Marko Krco Lister Staveley-Smith NingYu Tang Lei Qian MengTing Liu ChengJin Jin YouLing Yue Yan Zhu HongFei Liu DongJun Yu JingHai Sun GaoFeng Pan Hui Li HengQian Gan Rui Yao FAST Collaboration | 2019 | Science China(Physics,Mechanics & Astronomy)2019,62,5: | 0 |
| 17 | Pulsar candidate selection using ensemble networks for FAST drift-scan survey显示文摘The Commensal Radio Astronomy Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope(FAST) Survey(CRAFTS) utilizes the novel drift-scan commensal survey mode of FAST and can generate billions of pulsar candidate signals. The human experts are not likely to thoroughly examine these signals, and various machine sorting methods are used to aid the classification of the FAST candidates. In this study, we propose a new ensemble classification system for pulsar candidates. This system denotes the further development of the pulsar image-based classification system(PICS), which was used in the Arecibo Telescope pulsar survey, and has been retrained and customized for the FAST drift-scan survey. In this study, we designed a residual network model comprising 15 layers to replace the convolutional neural networks(CNNs) in PICS. The results of this study demonstrate that the new model can sort >96% of real pulsars to belong the top 1% of all candidates and classify >1.6 million candidates per day using a dual-GPU and 24-core computer. This increased speed and efficiency can help to facilitate real-time or quasi-real-time processing of the pulsar-search data stream obtained from CRAFTS. In addition, we have published the labeled FAST data used in this study online, which can aid in the development of new deep learning techniques for performing pulsar searches. | HongFeng Wang WeiWei Zhu Ping Guo Di Li SiBo Feng Qian Yin ChenChen Miao ZhenZhao Tao ZhiChen Pan Pei Wang Xin Zheng XiaoDan Deng ZhiJie Liu XiaoYao Xie XuHong Yu ShanPing You Hui Zhang FAST Collaboration | 2019 | Science China(Physics,Mechanics & Astronomy)2019,62,5: | 0 |
