Cambridge Low Frequency Synthesis Telescope
Illustration — CLFST in May 1999 The Cambridge Low-Frequency Synthesis Telescope (CLFST) is an east–west aperture synthesis radio telescope currently operating at 151 MHz. It consists of 60 tracking yagis on a 4.6 km baseline, giving 776 simultaneous baselines. These provide a resolution of 70×70 cosec (declination) arcsec 2, with a sensitivity of about 30 to 50 mJy/beam, and a field of view of about 9°×9°.
