Summary: | Radio JOVE Telescope, developed within the framework of NASA’s education project since 1998, was constructed at the Bosscha Observatory since 2009. Design and installation was first reported by Hidayat et al. (2009) and the corresponding use for observations was reported by Nasrulloh (2011). As a part of long-term program, this <br />

<br />
Radio JOVE Telescope will also be developed to be five-element interferometer array. To achieve this goal, some new components (antennas, receivers, calibrators, etc) must <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
be provided and subsequently the performance of each component must also be analyzed. Presently, Bosscha Observatory has three additional receivers and two types of <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
calibrators, each of which has two units, available since mid-2011. These components need to be characterized through regular observations. Results of these observations are <br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
not only useful scientific data but also to provide input for our future development. One of regular and continuous observations made during this Final Project is to monitor the Sun. Several strong solar bursts (Type III) have been successfully recorded. These data of solar bursts are also compared to observations from other similar telescopes when <br />

available. Our results seem to confirm that our Radio JOVE Telescope work well and can be developed further as planned for an interferometer array. |
