Verheijen (RuG) report on behalf of the ARTSand Apertif Teamson 1 Sep 2017; 15:17 UTCredential Certification: Joeri van Leeuwen (leeuwen@astron.nl)Subjects: Radio, Transient, Fast Radio BurstTweet  We observed the repeating FRB 121102 (Spitler et al. 2016) while commissioning the ApertifRadio Transient System (ARTS; van Leeuwen 2014) on the Westerbork Synthesis RadioTelescope. Starting at UTC 2017-08-31 06:23:37, we recorded 300 MHz of bandwidth around 1.4GHz from the central set of dipoles in the Apertif phased array feeds, from a single dish. Theobservation was the first with ARTS towards this source and lasted for 2 hours.Data were coherently dedispersed at the known DM of 557 pc/cc, and channelised. Next, thesefilterbank data were searched offline for radio bursts, both in time and over a limited dispersion-measure range. At barycentric MJD 57996.2656372 ARTS detected a bright FRB, its first, with afluence of 35 +- 10 Jy ms, a peak flux of 24 +- 7 Jy, and a FWHM of 1.3 +- 0.2 ms, at anoptimized DM of 555 pc/cc. No further bursts were discovered in the observing session.Following the detection of multiple bright pulses from FRB 121102 at higher frequencies with theGreen Bank Telescope (ATel #10675) on 26 August, this detection indicates the FRB source maybe in a phase of outburst.Further details and plots are available at http://www.alert.eu/FRB121102_20170831/Related11438 FRB180301: XinglongGWAC_F60 optical upperlimit11417 FRB180311: AstroSat CZTIupper limits and correctionto FRB180301 upper limits11413 FRB180301: AstroSat CZTIupper limits11386 INTEGRAL serendipitousupper limits on FRB18030111376 Detection of a new fast radioburst during BreakthroughListen observations10693 Detection of a bright burstfrom FRB 121102 withApertif at the WesterborkSynthesis Radio Telescope.10675 FRB 121102: Detection at 4 -8 GHz band withBreakthrough Listenbackend at Green Bank[ Telegram Index ]Recommend 94Free Surface-Image ViewerUse Cloud-based ProfilmOnline to View, Analyze, Store, and Share AFM & 3D ProfilerImages profilmonline.comOPENATel #10693: Detection of a bright burst from FRB 121102 with Apertif at the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope.http://www.astronomerstelegram.org/?read=10693[30-10-2018 12:26:28]R.
