Table information for 'nda.epn_core'

General

This table is available for ADQL queries and through the TAP endpoint.

Resource Description: Decametric radio observation from Nancay decameter array. The Nancay Decameter Array (NDA) at the Station de Radioastronomie de Nancay (SRN) is a phased array of 144 "Teepee" helicoidal antenna, half of which being Right Handed (RH) polarized and the other half being Left Handed (LH) polarized. Four receivers are currently connected to the NDA, sampling data in spectral ranges within 5 to 80 MHz.
